Los Angeles: Accommodation, Sightseeing Tours, Attractions, Information

click to enlarge

Despite this reputation of being a city of impeccably shiny surfaces, Los Angeles is a thriving, multi-faceted city that throbs with its world class everything. The never ending energy is what spawns creative institutions such Hollywood and Disneyland. That is why it is no surprise that Los Angeles is the home of not only glitzy film studios, but also is where some of the finest art museums in the world can be found. One such art museum is the world-famous Getty Centre that houses a stellar collection ranging from the Renaissance to David Hockney with particular highlights from Van Gogh, Monet, Rembrandt and Titan. The spectacular collection of works by the Gods of the Art World will most likely leave visitors in awe and wonder.

That is, until they meet the Gods of Fashion that reside along Rodeo Drive. Here is where the most celebrated and exclusive designers house their boutiques. Walking up and down one of the world’s most famous shopping streets, visitors will encounter the best French fashion, Italian designer boutiques and world-class jewellers. But as a warning: unless travellers plan to max out their credit card several times, Rodeo Drive should only be considered a great place to gawk at not only the designer goodies in the shop front, but also at the occasional celebrity buying them.

Of course when visitors to the city get sick of watching the beautiful people going about their beautiful daily business, they can head into the fray and spend days on end in the plethora of theme parks that are on offer by the city. Disneyland and Universal Studios top the list – the happiest place in the world can be teamed with the world’s largest movie studio to finish off one of the most spectacular, fast paced and exciting visits to a city that will ensure that everyone ends up as pleasantly tired as the many children who spend the whole day running around Disneyland with Mickey Mouse.

For those who still have the energy to explore the culinary tastes that the city has to offer, they will be pleasantly surprised with the melting pot of cultural tastes that are available in Los Angeles. It is as easy to find Cambodian delicacies, Jewish deli fare, a hearty Cuban meal and French cuisine in Los Angeles as it is to find a burger at McDonalds. It is a place willing to experiment with the culinary influences that is brought in by the cosmopolitan mix of people who come into the city every day.

Los Angeles is a result of the crazy wild mix of the vibrant personalities that run through the city every day. It embodies everything beautiful and glamorous in the western world and continues to churn and change with every new person and culture that blows in. For visitors, it is easy to get sucked into this exciting vortex; a city with its finger always on the pulse for excitement and everything that is trendy is thrilling, but may tire those unaccustomed to the chilled-back city with always something going on. Doesn’t really make sense? Well the only way to really understand is to pay a visit to the gods; and to be guaranteed, you’ll come back itching for more.
