A single archway in Pasadena once changed the course of a city’s fortunes, and shadows still linger behind the golden glow of Old Pasadena’s brick facades. This self-guided audio tour peels back the layers of the city, revealing stories and secrets hidden among bustling boutiques and iconic hotels—tales most visitors never hear.

Which political scandal nearly toppled the grandeur of the Hotel Green overnight? Why did jazz melodies echo through secret rooms at The Hotel Carver long after midnight? What odd relic lies forgotten in a quiet alley just steps from the main thoroughfare?

Move from sunlit avenues through corridors of memory, tracing footsteps of rebels, visionaries, and outcasts. The city’s past pulses beneath every cobblestone and arch. Each stop brings a shiver of surprise, a rush of wonder, and a sense of the unseen.

Press play and unlock Pasadena’s untold chapters—one echo, one marvel, one legend at a time.
