hey guys!
i hope you enjoyed my previous #LAGUIDE post on my favorite LA restaurants, since i covered food (truly the most important aspect of travel) i am moving on to my favorite LA places to go!
all photos are either from me or my amazing photographer sister alix! like always, these places i share photos from are places that i like to go to – and i honestly highly suggest looking at each of these places.
in no particular order, here we go!
for a place to take cute pictures outside…
the girls tour wall on melrose
my sister and i went here a few months ago and we took some cool photos there because the wall is super cool and easy to get to. we just parked on the street and walked up to take photos with the wall!
if you are interested in attending a sports game here, try out…
dodger stadium
if you know LA we didn’t used to have football teams here – and for most of my life (up until about last year) we didn’t have teams – we had USC and UCLA for football and i feel like pretty much everyone here is a dodgers fan. nothing beats going to a dodgers game – seriously if you have never been you should go because it’s so much fun.
if you’d die for the #aesthetic then you should go to
beverly hills hotel
i know i said that the girls tour wall is aesthetic – but for me the beverly hills hotel is the ultimate aesthetic. all pink and green, you can go and visit, you can go and stay, you can go and have brunch – honestly its just one of the prettiest places ever to take pictures!
if you want to visit a super cool and FREE art museum go to the…
the broad
the broad is so amazing! there is so much cool art there – but the advice i do have about the broad is to look for tickets in advance, don’t expect to just walk up to the broad and get in for that day – because it won’t happen!
if you are interested in going shopping / eating and having fun in a super cool community you should try out…
the arts district
the arts district has good food, good ice cream, good coffee and cute and cool shops and place to visit. its honestly not in the ~best~ area but it is really getting better and since there are so many people walking around its pretty safe!
if you are in DTLA and are looking for a place to eat and walk around, try out the…
grand central market
i’ve definitely talked about GCM before, and places in it. GCM is super fun because you can go with friends, shop around, each getting something different – and all get some mcconnells ice cream – so there is no way to lose there!
if you love modern art which some super cool exhibitons, go to…
lacma
i feel like most people have heard of lacma, or even see pictures of it. its a super cool museum with many cool pieces and exhibitions inside and its super easy to go with family and then get food – it makes a really fun morning or evening!
if you wanna go somewhere that is totally classic LA go to the…
griffith observatory
now if you have seen LA LA LAND you definitely know about this one, its the scene where they are having a date and then they dance in the stars, you one the one. anyway, the observatory is great to walk around and see LA from all angles and see the stars if you go there at night!
if you are here in the summer, and you wanna go to a concert, go to
the hollywood bowl
many people live in LA without ever going to the hollywood bowl, and i can’t believe that because its honestly such a cool place! you can go and find tickets for the nosebleed seats for a cheap price – but i also think that you can just go and check it out!
if you wanna go to a super #basic place for shopping and eating go to
melrose
melrose has so many cool shops and restaurants to stop at. and even though it might be above you budget, its super fun just to get coffee and look all around and walk in melrose!
and honestly, last but not least,
downtown la
obviously DTLA has so many places to go, and just walk around!
i hope you guys enjoy my LA favorite places! and if you need more LA suggestions, honestly just contact me on instagram or on the contact page on my blog.
xoxo
(aka kate wins!)
