Redding, California is best known for its beautiful natural surroundings. Located in the northern part of the state, Redding is nestled in the midst of the Shasta-Trinity National Forest and is surrounded by stunning mountain ranges and forests. The city is also home to the largest man-made reservoir in California, Lake Shasta, which is a popular spot for boating, fishing, and other outdoor activities. Redding is also home to the Sundial Bridge, a unique pedestrian bridge that spans the Sacramento River and is a popular spot for tourists and locals alike. In addition to its natural beauty, Redding is also home to a number of cultural attractions, including the Turtle Bay Exploration Park and the Redding Museum of Art and History.

    Northern CA and Southern CA are simply two worlds apart.
  • @panicrev555
    For the town that carries the designation of, "the sunniest city in California", you picked one hell of a day.
  • @user-xh5ye4tk5y
    Redding is one of the most beautiful city to live. It has lakes, mountains, waterfalls and lot of sun.

    Lived in Redding for 15 years. Moved to Hawaii right before the sun dial bridge was built. Beautiful place. Good ppl. Planning on moving back one day.

    Very much enjoyed this video. I have loved Redding since I discovered in when I was 12 years old. I used to go to the grocery store with my mom and there was a "free" real estate magazine there called "Redding Homes" and I used to collect them and look at the pictures and houses. When I was 18 I started travelling to Redding and exploring the area. I would usually visit 3 or 4 times a year. Much like this drive, I did these same roads with the exception of the newly opened Market Street. I always said to myself that Redding has something special and had so much potential. I am now 43 and much of what I envisioned for the city when I was 18 has come to life. I am actually moving to Redding this year just after my 44th birthday. I saved this video so I can watch it a few dozen times between now and then. Thanks for making it and I am sorry to the viewer who used to live there and did not like it. Maybe he didn't know what he actually had. Redding is a gem!

    Can't visit Redding without seeing the Sundial Bridge.

    If you go back to where you turned north from Cypress the restaurant called Lulu's is where Merle Haggard went all the time...I lived in Redding for a few years left back in 1981.

    I live in redding and I gotta say it looks good but wouldn't recommend visiting due to the homeless population and the police you can say "come on vacation ,leave with probation "

    Lived in Redding (Anderson) my entire life until 2 years ago. It is heavily overrun by homeless, and has a huge drug problem for a city of its size. There are not great jobs (if you work in healthcare you are in good shape!) and the cost of housing is insane for where you are living. It is great if you love the outdoors, but 4-5 months out of the year it is HOT. I would go to work at 4am and sometimes it could still be 80F. Depending how you lean politically would have a heavy influence on moving there as well. I would suggest you do your research. It will always be home and where I grew up, but I would never move back in its current state.

    That was a wonderful drive around Redding! I grew up there, but moved to Sacramento when I got married. I've been gone 30 years and I was amazed to see the downtown mall GONE! What I miss the most about Redding is the versatility the area has to offer. Sacramento River, Whiskeytown Lake, Shasta Lake, Mt. Shasta, Mt. Lassen, and the list goes on and on. I used to think living in a bigger city would make my entertainment options increase, but I was wrong. I miss Redding. Thanks for the drive, Mr. Owen!

    WOW this video is bringing back a lot of memories and mixed emotions. I no longe. r live in redding (dirty 530), but grew up there from 97-2014. All my trauma and bad events come from there, and yet there was a lot of good too. Redding was an interesting place whether you loved or hated it (sometimes simultaneously) My best friend still lives there and I'm tempted to move back as she has a room for rent. But every time I visit something bad happens or I just feel awful. It's quite a complex feeling. I miss the lakes though.
