Central Los Angeles Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

At the rooftop of the observatory, one can have a great view of the Los Angeles skyline including the iconic Hollywood sign.
The Bradbury Building, built in 1893 in downtown Los Angeles, is my favorite building in California--at least my favorite interior. It's been a location for a number of movies, such as Blade Runner, Double Indemnity, and (500) Days of Summer.
Griffith Observatory in the early morning, just as Los Angeles awakes. As seen in the movie La La Land.
