Life is too short to drive on boring roads.

While there are a handful of roads with magnificent views that connect California and its many wonders, some offer substantially better landscapes than others. The road that we're going to shine a spotlight on today is nothing short of breathtaking. Travelers who take this route have no choice but to roll down their windows and marvel and the wonder that exists just outside their vehicle.

Sometimes, the view is so breathtaking that drivers feel compelled to stop, pull over, take a photo, and soak it all in.

If you're ready to set your sights on one of the most beautiful scenes California has to offer from the comfort of your car, or are simply tired of your boring commute, we've got just the road for you!

According to a list compiled by LoveExploring, the most scenic road in California is the Pacific Coast Highway (specifically in Big Sur). This road boasts stunning views from start to finish and is revered as one of the most stunning paths in the U.S. by locals and travelers alike.

Here's what LoveExploring had to say about the most beautiful road to drive in the entire state:

"This one needs little introduction. California packs a punch when it comes to road trips, but the Big Sur section of the Pacific Coast Highway is the most dazzling of them all. The green-flecked Santa Lucia Mountains sweep down towards the Pacific, which is met by washes of golden sand. Expect to move slowly on this stretch of the highway, especially around Bixby Creek Bridge. This mighty arch is one of the Central Coast's shining stars."
