Description
The city of Mountain View, like most communities in Silicon Valley, started as a farm village. It later grew into a large city, but its downtown business district along Castro Street still retains a friendly feel. On the western end, you'll find the Civic Center Plaza with the stunning Mountain View Center for Performing Arts. Scattered throughout the next few blocks are restaurants--many serving excellent Asian cuisine--coffee shops, and various types of stores.
