Los Angeles
Nicknamed “The Entertainment Capitol of the World”, Los Angeles is one of the world’s most extraordinary cities with an eclectic mix of multicultural neighborhoods. Visit Leimert Park, the “Black Greenwich Village”, Koreatown for Korean BBQ, shop for fresh local fare at Larchmont Village’s Sunday Farmer’s Market. Catch a performance at West Hollywood’s House of Blues, window shop along Beverly Hills’ famed Rodeo Drive, visit Century City’s Fox Plaza, featured in the movie “Die Hard” as well as “Fight Club” and “Speed.” Spend the day biking the 22-mile “Strand” that goes along L.A.’s Manhattan and Hermosa Beaches. Check out the “stars” on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, and put your hands into the hand prints of your favorite celebrity at the TCL Chinese Theater.
Los Angeles is an incredible blend of industries — entertainment, sports, science, the media, technology, fashion, music, medicine. From its inauspicious beginnings in the 1850’s, L.A. has grown into a global metropolis, attracting travelers as well as businesses from all over the world.
