Los Angeles Highlights
Los Angeles is a vibrant mix of neighbourhoods blessed with year-round sunshine.
Across the world, the 'City of Angels' is most famous for its movie industry. Check out the stars on Hollywood Boulevard, take snaps of the Hollywood Sign, watch a movie at the Chinese Theater or dive into the mall at Hollywood and Highland. You can also take guided tours of stars’ homes and the studios which launched their careers.
For some laid-back beach culture, head to Santa Monica and roller-skate down the promenade. Rent a surfboard and head to nearby surfing spots like Malibu, or visit the amusements on Santa Monica pier. Alternatively, just relax all day on the sand.
