Remembering MJ

The Neverland Ranch is situated in Los Olivos, California, about 120 miles northwest of Los Angeles. It covers around 2,700 acres.

Michael Jackson purchased the property in 1988 for around $19.5 million. He transformed it into a private amusement park, complete with a zoo, amusement rides, and a lavish mansion, naming it Neverland after the magical land from Peter Pan, reflecting his desire to create a space of childlike wonder and fantasy.
