California (English: StateofCalifornia) borders the Pacific Ocean, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona and Baja California, Mexico. California has a variety of natural landscapes, including magnificent canyons, mountains and dry deserts. With an area of 4 1 10,000 square kilometers, California is the third largest state in the United States. There is also an alias "Golden State". When the spring grass on the hills in the middle of this state withers in autumn, it looks like gold from a distance.
