Like many big cities, Los Angeles is a ingathering of little towns, basifixed together with a grid of routes and freeways.
Just About 60 miles across it is one of the biggest cities by region in the US. Crossing from side to side can take an hour, but with freeway traffic conditions you are more likely to take at least large this time.
Downtown LA is more of a commercial-grade district of skyscraper office blocks than a shopping district. You will find shopping in the form of low shopping malls and extended shopping shopping centres patterned all over the LA basin.
In this respect LA is a petty letting down if you were looking for an american variation of London or Paris. Yet there is still plenty to see and do, it just takes a little preparation so that you are not passing your entire time in a traffic jam or driving extended miles crossways city.
Places To Inspect
Present are some chosen places to see whilst in LA.
Angeles Crest Main Road
A little out of the city this scenic drive turns and turns much like Mulholland Drive along the mountainous crest of the LA basin.
Long Beach
Place of the Queen Mary which can be toured.
Aquarium of the Pacific
Whilst in Long Beach the Aquarium of the Pacific is decidedly worth a see. From flashy corals and tropical marine fish to California Rays that come out of the water for you to pet and stroke like small dogs! Also a new shark exhibition is worth experiencing.
Dodger Stadium
Whether going to a ball game or not, the stadium is worth a visit. Top of the Park souvenir shop sells LA Dodger branded clothing and other baseball souvenirs. Parking is free on non-game days.
Griffith Park
A great vantage aim from where you can see the bunch of skyscrapers making up the commercial-grade downtown of LA and also the world-famous Hollywood mark.
Hollywood Boulevard
Away from the famous stars drawing the sidewalk there is usually some form of street amusement and always a hustle. At the West-central end of Hollywood Boulevard is . . .
Mann's Chinese
A must-see, even if it's much smaller in practical life than you would have thought! Famous foot/hand/etc. prints of those fabulous Hollywood stars.
Frederick's Of Hollywood
Also on Hollywood Boulevard is Frederick's flagship intimate apparel store, world-renowned. Lets In a free museum of lingerie worn by stars of the silver screen
Mulholland Drive
The famous drive that has views all over the LA basin and will insert you to the scale of the city.
Universal Studios
More of a theme park than studio tour, but true to the glamour and flashiness of Hollywood.
Warner Brothers
In contrast to Universal, this is a tour of a practical studio. A dress museum full of attractive history is the start of a tour that accepts prop departments, workshops, sound stages, commonly a opportunity to sit in on a TV series rehearsal in a sound stage and a chance to roll around some unforgettable backlot sets.
And don't forget neighboring Orange County which is home to the quint essential Southern Californian Beach Cities of Newport Beach and Huntington Beach where life slows to the ebb and stream of the Pacific along their golden sandy shores. Or for some great shopping travel to world class South Coast Mall at Costa Mesa or the out-of-door mall of Newport Beach's Fashion Island.
