Last month, we asked you to help us create a San Jose bucket list — and you didn’t disappoint. Here are the can’t-miss activities readers suggested, finishing the prompt:
Did you really visit San Jose if you didn’t...
“Eat at La Vic’s” — @pepper_dy
“Get BOGO beers courtesy of Beer Batter at an SJ Giants game” — @carlitosbuey 🍻
“Go to the San Jose Sikh Gurdwara. Built on a hill overlooking San Jose, it’s for the spiritually inclined, or someone just looking for a bit of peace in an architectural marvel” — Warren U.
“Visit the Rosicrucian Park and walk the labyrinth” — Paulette M.

And maybe the most San Josean experience: ”...get caught in traffic” — @thedanielzee 🚗
While you’re at it, don’t miss these other must-do suggestions:
“Nightlife/San Pedro, Valley Fair Mall, Top Golf” — @serenaasimoes
“I’d say the 3 things to do for any visitor would be the [Lick] Observatory, Rosicrucian Museum, and Mark’s Hot Dogs mainly for the building” — @mystical.wonderland
“Especially with this beautiful fall weather, one must take one of the many beautiful and easily accessible hikes — for example, Quicksilver or St. Joseph’s Hill — and then enjoy the fantastic view of San Jose” — Katie C. 🥾
“Sushi Con (on the patio), San Pedro Square, Christmas in the Park (holiday season), La Vic’s [and] Iguanas, Great America, Great Mall” — Kristen B.
