Not much to see except a bakery, cheap items, and an anime toy store. Highly suggest checking out Little Jewel of New Orleans though. This place is mostly popping during Chinese events.

To be honest, there's not much to see. It's good for a one time thing. A few thing you can do: Walk up some stairs that look nice but it gets sketchy. There's a few coffee-shops that look beautiful if you wanna check those out. There's good gelato at Passo Gelato and SilverLake Ramen is well known. The best thing about being here, is 2 hours before the sunset, at the Dog Park. You're welcome to freely come and enjoy their presence and walking up the river to see the sunset while laying down on grass.

Bring a sweater and a portable phone charger. Some parts get cold. Some parts drain your battery because of no signal and your phone starts roaming.

It's an awesome place to come to. Citywalk especially is nice, particularly during events or their AMC theaters with recliner seats!

It's a beautiful place to come check out, with many good stores and good places to snack on and eat, including the famed Cheesecake factory. Some of my favorites are the candy store, the trolley, and the farmers market!

I've seen how Griffith observatory has gotten better over the years. With many levels of education and even some food spots and free wifi, this is the place to be when deciding to hike for a bit and be rewarded with education and a beautiful view. Personally, I'd recommend either coming here early morning after your hike to see the sunrise at top, or to see the sunset afterwards. Parking can get hectic so plan accordingly.

Very similar to the grove, except, this was the original one. One could spend all day here, with so many malls around this place and so many good options for food, this is definitely the place to check out when in town.

Highly suggested to do at least once. Make sure to get in two hours before the sunset takes place. The view is breath-taking and its awesome for photography. Highly suggest also taking the mini trip around the outside of the building. The slide is very scary, but it is over in 5 seconds. A very fun thrill.

A lot of history and education. Easily one of the most beautiful and older pieces of Los Angeles history. Lots of memories here. Would also suggest walking a bit north behind the library, there's a beautiful staircase going up. Beautiful scenery and great for photography.

It's a beautiful place to walk around on the outside, seeing some beautiful artworks and fountains. If you walk around enough, you'll find a water court that is beautiful to take photography in.

One of the rare places you can eat gold with ice cream. Also, they serve charcoal ice cream here. Worth checking out!

Lots of good food places here but also many interesting things to take photography with and although its so big, so many people pass it by. It's a giant hole in the wall that doesn't seem to get noticed. Don't miss it.

Porady dla podróżnych
Poruszanie się po okolicy
Use google maps
Using this, you will know how to get around via public transportation.
It is suggested to obtain a TAP card at a metro station, and fill it with cash, not fare. $20 is a good start that will last you a while.
Each time you transfer to a new bus/train, it won't charge you if its done within a two hour time-span, so yay for saving money!
Zwyczaje i kultura
Issues with homelessness
If a homeless person or a person "in need" asks you for money, only offer them food/water/clothing. Do not give them money. 99.9 percent of the time, they will use the money for other reasons.

Try to get the timing for the sunset. At least two hours before.
Przydatne zwroty
Getting people's attention
If you see someone with earphones on, just wave in front of them, trying to catch their attention. Try not to touch people to get their attention. Most people in LA have a strange thing about personal space and not looking, so a simple wave and smile will let them know that you're trying to get their attention.
