Things to Do in Los Angeles

Pack your bathers and put on your new pair of sunnies: It’s almost always cloudless in Southern California. There is plenty to do outside while you’re in LA, including a hike at Griffith Park and a relaxing walk down the Santa Monica Pier. At the TCL Chinese Theatre, you can get up close to the cemented footprints of popular stars and see how you size up. Then head over to the Getty Center, where free art exhibits await to delight your eyes and inspire your next masterpiece.

If you’re ever wondering what to do in Los Angeles, you can always journey toward the coast. Miles of golden sand in the beach neighbourhoods are perfect for playing volleyball, frolicking in the Pacific Ocean, or just getting in some good old-fashioned sun worshipping. Point your compass inland, and you can examine fossils at the La Brea Tar Pits and see how movies are made at Universal Studios Hollywood. A stop in front of the Hollywood sign is the perfect photo opportunity, and a trip to Little Tokyo is always vibrant and enchanting. If you have a credit card burning a hole in your pocket, a few hours on Rodeo Drive will cure your spending fever. The world-famous “House of Mouse” theme park in nearby Anaheim brings your favourite animated characters to life, making it the perfect stop for kids and the young at heart.
