Monument Peak Panorama
Large Open Field in Hemet, Riverside County
One of my favorite places at the Mission Inn is a bit hard to find. It's near the back of the property where there's a several story open atrium with a gorgeous spiral staircase that seems to float in mid-air. It's absolutely stunning to see in person.
