The best photos of Napa aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Oxbow Public Market and Napa Valley Wine Train will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Napa River Trail for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
The heart of California's most famous wine region, with hundreds of wineries, farm-to-table dining, and a revitalized downtown.
