There is something oddly fascinating about watching workers here take sugar and fruit juice mixed with a few other ingredients and turn it all into gourmet jelly beans. Free, guided tours leave every few minutes and walk you through the process from mixing, forming and tumbling to polishing and packaging. The visitor center includes (what else?) a candy store. Visitors get to sample test flavors and rate them for potential marketing.

The Glory Hole is a drain hole part of the Monticello Dam at Lake Berryessa in Napa. The spillway is 72 feet (22 meters) wide and plunges down 280 feet (86 meters), making it the largest of its kind in the world. Though the dam water rarely exceeds capacity, if it does, it’s amazing to see the spillway in use as it takes in about 48,400 cubic feet (1370 cubic meters) of dam water per second. However, even if the spillway is at a peaceful standstill, you will still be amazed at the sight of this magnificent man-made creation.
