We're always looking for things to do in Fremont and this was a great find! The actors were great and the skits were very funny; we're still laughing over some of the lines days later. This was a great night out at a very reasonable price. We're going back and will bring a group of friends next time.

This place is the good place for hiking and to watching the sun set. And it is free of parking. The trails are very easy, and there are many kinds of birds, it is great place for taking the photo for the birds. At evening, the sunset is gorgeous, the Dombarton Bridge under the there, just a great view.

For the record this page is a duplicate to the "Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum" page, the correct and full name, on this website. They are one and the same. My wife and I have been going to see silent and early "talkie" films at the Niles Film Museum roughly quarterly since it was restored in 2004. The original Edison Theater opened here in 1913. It's been pointed out by some reviewers that this museum/theater is a quite modest by the standards of other museums devoted to movie history, e.g. the Hollywood Museum in Hollywood or the Museum of Western Film History in Lone Pine that are admittedly magnificent, and that would be true. Nonetheless, this is another of Fremont’s gems that is dedicated to local film history, but unfortunately it doesn't have the budget of the larger, grander film musuems. Films are shown weekly on Saturday nights and on some Sunday afternoons with live music that are always well attended by enthusiastic audiences. And there is a small museum containing memorabilila of the film era in Niles when Charlie Chaplin and Bronco Billy Anderson, the first cowboy star, where making films in Niles and the surrounding hills, including at least one that I know of that was filmed in San Francisco on the west end of Golden Gate Park. If you’re a fan of silent films or enjoy movie history, this a must see. The museum is modest but very interesting and continues to grow funded by donors. One of the most interesting parts of the theater is its original projection room that had been sealed up since the 1923 sale of the Edison Theater with its original projection equipment in place and then rediscovered during the restoration. Films are now shown using the original projectors. I highly recommend. And don't miss the projection room tour.

We often go to Niles Canyon area of Fremont. The area is know for the silent movie industry and also railroads. One can visit the silent movie museum. The railroad often has train rides one can take. In the area, there is also a series of antique stores to look for treasures. There is also several cafes and restaurants. This is a historic area of Fremont to visit. Our most recent visit was in November 2019.

Enjoyed walking/trekking on Coyote Hills Regional Park. There is a fee per car (and additional cost for dog) to get into the park. During winter period, it can be really cold because of the wind, so be prepared. This is at least half a day event. There are various route you can take and you can determine from the start. Highly recommend for those who wants outside activity and exercise.

As amateur geologists, a look at a significant fault running through an urban area is fascinating. The signs are there to be seen for those that know what to look for: rippled asphalt, misaligned curb stones, uplifted or depressed land, etc. The Hayward Fault pretty much runs through the center of downtown Fremont and many of its suburban neighborhoods where this walk is located. This is an easy walk and a good opportunity to educate yourself and your children.
