When you land
Things to do in Palm Springs
Palm Springs became Hollywood’s desert retreat in the middle of the 20th century, and that era left a remarkable collection of midcentury modern homes, banks and civic buildings by architects such as Albert Frey, William Krisel and E. Stewart Williams. The resort cities of the Coachella Valley stretch southeast from here through Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert, Indian Wells and La Quinta, with luxury resorts, country clubs and well over a hundred golf courses. Hospitality, real estate, second homes and health care drive the local economy.
