Hearst Castle in San Simeon, 225 miles north of L.A., is the house that William Randolph built. Along with its three standard tours, docents re-create 1930s high society in special evening tours on most Fridays and Saturdays (March 2 through May 19; tickets: $30 for adults; $15 ages 6 through 17). Also, garden tours run from April 1 through October. A renovated visitor center with a Mediterranean Revival theme is set to open in summer. Info: (800) 444-4445 or www.hearstcastle.com.
