Take a Peek into Pio Pico

On the grounds of Pio Pico State Historic Park stands the adobe home of the last governor of Mexican California, Don Pio Pico, who was also one of the wealthiest and most influential people in this new territory. Students learn the history of Pio Pico and virtually tour his home, which has survived floods and deterioration. They will also get to see the park grounds which includes a zanja (an aqueduct) which brought water to El Ranchito de Pio Pico.
