Los Angeles epitomizes cool, and the list of great things to do there could more than fill a book. Activities range from amusement parks to wide, sandy beaches to world-class museums.
Hollywood
The Hollywood and Highland complex constitutes the center of Tinseltown. Famous movie theaters like the Chinese and El Capitan are right next door, and the Kodak Theatre (which hosts the Oscars every year) is on-site.
Disneyland
No visit to L.A. would be complete without a day at the Happiest Place on Earth, just down the road in nearby Anaheim.
Beaches
A number of coastal communities in L.A. has public beaches for swimming. Santa Monica and Venice also have public piers and an eclectic street scene nearby.
Griffith Park
The Griffith Park Observatory sits just above downtown L.A., featuring astronomical phenomenon and an unparalleled view of the Southland.
Art Museum
The L.A. County Museum of Art contains a stunning collection of paintings and statues. The La Brea Tar Pits is right next door on Wilshire Boulevard.
