City advice

Getting around

The Many Faces of LA

Los Angeles is deceptively big. Every neighborhood has its own charm worth visiting. From the East, we have Arts District, Little Tokyo, Downtown LA, Chinatown. As we head westward into the center of LA, we'll pass by Silver Lake, Echo Park, Los Feliz, Koreatown, Griffith Park, Hollywood. Farther west will be West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Mid-Wilshire, Culver City. Our west coast consists of Santa Monica, Venice, Malibu, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach. It can easily take a few days just to explore all the different neighborhoods of Los Angeles.
