Hey! So I noticed that you were from Los Angeles and I'm actually going on vacation there at the end of the year! (From Australia) I was wondering if you could give me some ideas, like what to try eating, where to go, what to do etc, and what the locals do? thanks so much!
Awesome! You will love LA, it’s a great city! :) Los Angeles is a really diverse city, so you’ll want to go to as many different neighborhoods as possible.
Hollywood is a big tourist place, so check that out-Walk of Fame, Grauman’s Chinese Theater, wax museum, etc.
Definitely check out the beaches-there’s a lot of them! Venice, Santa Monica, Malibu. Venice is really unique and has lots of interesting characters. Santa Monica has shopping, the boardwalk/pier, rides, etc. Malibu definitely has the most beautiful beaches though!
There’s a lot of great shopping here too. Check out Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica and The Grove mall and Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills.
Check out Downtown too. There’s a lot to see there. The financial district, China Town, Korea Town, etc.
There’s plenty of museums, etc. like the LACMA in Beverly Hills, Griffith Park & Griffith Observatory near Hollywood, Getty Center in Brentwood/Getty Villa in Malibu.
Drive through Beverly Hills and Bel Air and look at the amazing mansions!
If you’re willing to drive a bit, go over to Anaheim and visit Disneyland! Universal Studios in Hollywood is a cool theme park too.
Make sure you get In N Out Burger at some point; there’s plenty here and you can’t come to California and not have it! Cafe Crepe in Santa Monica is also great and one of my favorite restaurants. Go to Diddy Riese in Westwood Village-it is pretty small but you will get some of the best (and cheapest) ice cream you’ve ever had. Also check out Millions of Milkshakes in Hollywood.
Have a fun and safe trip! I’m sure you’ll love it here :)
do you take your pictures yourself?
Yup! :) Everything on here was taken by me
