Top Ten Things to do in Los Angeles
1 Leo Carillo State Beach
32100 Pacific Coast Hwy, Malibu, CA 90265
One of Malibu's best-kept secrets is also one of the most private beaches in SoCal. Trek down the well worn path to the water and stake your claim on the sand. Romance alert: If the tide is low and the ocean calm, you can sneak around the hulking rock formations and discover other, more private, places to get beached.
If you don't drive to Los Angeles in your own car, you can hire a rental car at the Airport (LAX) or from dozens on Los Angeles Car Rental dealers.
2 The Hollywood Bowl
2301 N Highland Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90068
A concert venue like no other, this outdoor amphitheater makes it feel like you're watching your favorite band perform on the moon. It's that special. So pack a picnic, grab a bottle of wine and roll out the blanket.
3 Hollywood & Highland
6800 Hollywood Blvd, Hollywood, CA 90028
The Times Square of the West Coast, this famed intersection has become a tourist-trapping mecca of shopping and entertainment. Search the sidewalks for the star of your favorite celeb, but be careful not to bump into a costumed superhero--they roam in front of the complex.
4 Griffith Park Observatory
2800 E Observatory Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90027
From this famous Griffith Park peak you can see the ocean, downtown, the Hollywood sign and, of course, the stars. Following a multimillion-dollar facelift, the landmark, which includes the remarkable Samuel Oschin Planetarium, is truly out of this world.
5 Pink's Hot Dogs
709 N La Brea Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90038
If it's nearly 3am and there's a line wrapped around the block, it's probably because of this Melrose landmark. Despite 20 other options on the menu, their long, thin, 100-percent beef dogs--oozing with chili and topped with a slab of neon-orange cheese--are what everyone is waiting for.
6 Skybar
8440 Sunset Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90069
Do the Sunset Strip in style: Sip cocktails with supermodels--or spy on supermodels sipping cocktails. Or, be hired as a supermodel in an ad for cocktails. Come on, this velvet rope bar is Hollywood to the core.
7 Norton Simon Museum Of Art
411 W Colorado Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91105
Oh, you sophisticated soul you. Find two thousand years of art tucked into just one city block here. And since the incomparable collection includes great Renaissance and Old Master paintings, you'll be in excellent high-brow company.
8 Chateau Marmont
8221 W Sunset Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90046
The tales to be told if the walls of this hallowed West Hollywood hotel could talk. John Belushi overdosed in one of the bungalows, and Lindsay Lohan spiced things up when she made it her makeshift L.A. home. Even if you already have a place to stay, you can sneak a peek while enjoying brunch on the quiet garden patio.
9 Studio Tour at Universal Studios Hollywood
100 Universal City Plz, Universal City, CA 91608
Climb aboard for a guided tour through Hollywood history--but beware of sharks (Jaws), tremors (Earthquake) and exploding cars (Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift). Not only does the Universal Studios backlot tour become a ride of its own, but it's also the only way you'll see the actual sets from legendary films like Back to the Future, War of the Worlds, Psycho and more. The classic King Kong stop on the tour burnt down in a recent fire, but perhaps a trip down Wisteria Lane (TV's Desperate Housewives) will make you feel better?
10 Santa Monica Pier
200 Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica, CA 90401
For he's a jolly good fellow! At the ripe old age of 100 this year, there's never been a better time to see SoCal royalty than right around the time that it is right now. Celebrate the famed Coney Island of the west, where you can take a turn on a newly revitalized ferris wheel or strap in for a roller coaster ride. Real thrill seekers will go ape for the daily Trapeze
