Top 5 Things To Do In Los Angeles
1 The Paul Getty Center
The Paul Getty Center museum is world-class and its
free.
Fabulous art collections, wide ranging exhibits, stunning white
architecture, great views, gorgeous -amazing gardens, grand sculptures
and even free tours.
The museum has 'ran out of time' stamped all over it so arrive early
and don't plan to leave at least until after lunch - which you can
bring with you if you wish.
The museum boasts a wide selection of art from different periods
and genres.
Worthwhile doing some research before you arrive so you can decide
on what to see first. Alternatively a tour might help.
The attractions are almost as numerous as the number of people milling
about. Queuing should be mostly about food (another reason to bring
your own)
2 The stars baby - the stars (The Walk Of Fame)
You can't go past Mae West, Dorothy Dandridge, Anna
Mae Wong and Dolores Del Rio so start off with the girls and get
walking.
From The Beatles to the LAPD. Like an overenthasiastic
teacher, the Walk of Fame gives a star to everybody who was somebody
sometime.
There are almost as many Hollywood stars in the pavement
as there are in the Milkyway - not even close of course but it is
a hike. They don't call Hollywood the star factory for nothing.
You'll find most of the super novas between La Brea to Vine.
The stars 'shine' along hollywood blvd from La Brea
to Gower Street and on Vine Street from Yucca Street to Sunset Blvd.
3 Universal Studios Hollywood
Some say Universal Studios Hollywood is showing its
age. Maybe its character is showing abit and maybe it doesn’t
compare to Disneyland. But then its not suppose to be Disneyland
- there already is one. The studio tour gets a tick - that is why
you are there right.
The Jurassic park the mummy returns ride gets another
tick, to do once you’ve done your studio tour. Get wet and
go with the flow and remember, this isn’t Disneyland.
4 Venice Beach Boardwalk - People Walk
People watching people, people talking, people hanging
out and people selling stuff. Its friendly, funny perhaps or at
least interesting. Its its own place. Odd and entertaining. People,
if you are people, if you like people, you’ll like the Venice
Beach Boardwalk.
Locals run (early) or stroll (late is good). Sun (hopefully), waves
(probably) and interesting personalities (almost certainly).
Snacks ,coffee but most importantly the people man!
You kinda have to go to know. Venice is funky, gritty but most of
all fun. Go there.
5 The Sign Baby the H O L L Y W O O D Sign
Look to the hills and there it is. For a decent look
and get that all important photo you must travel
Head for Beechwood Drive and don't stop - just keep
going. Eventually you will come to a gate. Look for a small car
park on the right.
Your adventure continues on foot. Follow the Hollyridge
Grail, sorry trail, and look for a sign - H O L L Y W O O D.
