The San Diego Padres was established in 1969, the year they became an expansion team with Major League Baseball. Their name is taken from the name of the team from the Pacific Coast League. The Padres played their home games at Qualcomm Stadium but they have since moved to PETCO Park in the Gaslamp District. They won the National League Pennant in 1984 and again in 1998.
The Padres are based in San Diego, California, a city by the sea blessed with varied attractions and landmarks both natural and manmade. Some of these include: Old Town, the Gaslamp District, the San Diego Zoo and Sea World. It is also home to the California Tower in Balboa Park, which features a bell tower. Two of the most popular tourist attractions in the city include Point Loma Lighthouse and Cabrillo National Monument. Both locals and tourists also come to San Diego for a spectacular view of the area from Mount Soledad or Mount Helix.
