Arts & Culture
The Integratron is a 38-foot high, 50-foot diameter, non-metallic structure designed by the engineer George Van Tassel as a rejuvenation machine. Van Tassel was a legendary figure, a former test pilot for Howard Huges and Douglas Aircraft, who made his home in a cave hollowed out under nearby Giant Rock. Van Tassel led weekly meditations during the 1950s, which he claimed led to UFO contacts. He said UFO channelings and ideas from Nikola Tesla and other pioneers in the field of electromagnetics led to the unique architecture of the Integratron. He spent 18 years constructing the building.

Sightseeing
There is plenty to do in downtown Joshua Tree before or after your park visit. Park and walk the small village area. My favorite place to eat is Crossroads cafe. It is often busy, but worth a little wait. There is also the Natural Sister Cafe that I have heard great reviews from. Pie for the People is a great little Pizza joint. I personally love the 'David Bowie'. If you like authentic Indian food- Sams market has a restaurant inside. Every Saturday from 8 am to 1 pm, there is farmers market in downtown Joshua Tree with produce, cheese and some arts/crafts.
