Los Angeles
The entertainment capital of the world has diverse shopping, dining, and sightseeing opportunities packed into little more than 500 square miles.
Sunshine, celebrity sightings, shopping, and award-winning restaurants—Los Angeles is a city with endless possibilities. While visitors may arrive at the entertainment capital of the world with stars in their eyes, they’ll soon discover there’s much more than just red-carpet glamour. Second in population size only to New York, L.A. is a vibrant destination where creativity and self-expression have fueled the growth of art, music, architecture, and neighborhoods dedicated to cultural exploration.
Things to do
Get to know the city by taking an L.A. Conservancy walking tour. Weekend excursions revisit L.A.’s storied past at landmarks such as the Bradbury Building and Angels Flight railway, both featured on the TV show Bosch, among others. If sports are more your speed, Dodger Stadium in the hilly Echo Park neighborhood overlooks downtown, and nearby hiking trails and bike paths offer an outdoor escape in adjacent Elysian Park. Cheer on the boys in blue or take a behind-the-scenes tour of the third-oldest MLB stadium, which includes a walk through the Vin Scully Press Box and a trip down to the field. Another great L.A. vantage point can be found on Mount Hollywood, where Griffith Observatory has free public telescopes for viewing the famous Hollywood Sign, the Los Angeles basin, and the night sky.
For pop culture fans, Universal Studios Hollywood is a must-do: The combination of the World Famous Studio Tour (featuring working sets) and themed rides and attractions is irresistible. Don’t-miss experiences at the park include the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and the video-game-themed Super Nintendo World.
Once you’ve seen the stars, head to L.A. Live for some after-dark entertainment. Catch an intimate performance on the Grammy Museum soundstage or dance the night away at The Conga Room. For some of L.A.’s best improv and sketch comedy, The Groundlings Theatre on Melrose Avenue delivers laughter and a chance to scope out emerging talent. Among the improv theatre’s notable alumni are Will Ferrell, Lisa Kudrow, Melissa McCarthy, and many other Saturday Night Live cast members.
