The area now known as Temecula was originally inhabited by the Luiseno people, who lived in the area for thousands of years. The first European to visit the area was Father Juan Norberto de Santiago, who came in 1797. In 1821, Mexico won its independence from Spain and the area became part of the Mexican state of Alta California. In 1844, the Rancho Temecula Mexican land grant was issued to Juan Murrieta by Governor Manuel Micheltorena. The grant included the area that is now the City of Temecula. In 1859, the grant was sold to Felix Valdez, who established the first winery in the area. In the late 1800s, the area began to attract settlers from the east coast of the United States. The first post office was established in 1882 and the town was officially incorporated in 1989. Today, Temecula is a thriving city with a population of over 100,000. It is known for its wineries, hot air balloon rides, and its annual Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival.
