Solvang's 12-block downtown is a concentrated collection of Danish farm-style architecture. Founded in 1911 by Danes, the town's Scandinavian heritage is celebrated also in food, celebrations and language. Solvang's unique character draws throngs of visitors, especially on sunny weekends, as do the numerous wineries of the Santa Ynez Valley that surround the town.
