Surrounded by four mountain ranges in the Mojave Desert, this small city offers a gateway to natural wonders. The Maturango Museum showcases Native American artifacts and regional natural history that tells the desert's story. Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake gives the town its distinctive character, while Petroglyph Park preserves ancient rock art. Take a day trip to Death Valley National Park for surreal landscapes from salt flats to painted hills. After dark, the night skies deliver a stellar show far from city lights. China Lake Golf Course provides unexpected greenery amid the desert palette. The isolated location means fewer crowds but more authentic experiences for those willing to venture beyond typical tourist routes.
