Glamorous Neighborhoods to Visit in Los Angeles

This evocative name of the wildest dreams, of the many films of the Twentieth Century, of the American stars is that of a neighborhood that a puny disappointing for the tourist: the stars have deserted the area and it is now rather infamous, frequented by prostitutes, drug dealers and a fauna that is not good to rub the dark. Despite all this, the area of Hollywood is of policy a must-see, especially Hollywood Blvd where the Walk of Fame star with all the biggest stars (there are over 2500), burned to the ground. You will also have the opportunity to attend the inauguration of a star (about 1 per year). One of the mythical symbols of Los Angeles is the Hollywood Sign.

Sunset Blvd or Sunset Trip, with giant billboards (billboards) concentrates the largest amount of nightclubs, music clubs and other venues of La. If you want to sample the nightlife of La, is one of the places to remember.

Roller Skates Shops

Melrose Avenue is a concentration of restaurants, cafes and boutiques. This boulevard is one of the few places in La where you will enjoy a peaceful walk while on vacation. The district of West Hollywood focuses the Gay society of La.

Beverly Hills is a district that concentrates the most high-priced houses in the world, not necessarily, the best taste but it is a safe neighborhood with huge and very luxurious buildings. The heart of Beverly Hills is settled nearby Rodeo Drive, a street lined with shops of the biggest global brands.

Some stars still live in Beverly Hills but many have fled to the hills of La to find the tranquility and avoid the involving tourists.

Bel Air and Pacific Palisades are situated on the hills of La, a puny apart from the crowd and they are the true "benchmark" of stars.

Santa Monica and Venice are settled along the sea south of Beverly Hills. Santa Monica is now a trendy, bustling at night with many bars and restaurants along the Third street Promenade, a busy pedestrian street. You will also see the numerous shops, cinemas and street entertainers.

On Wednesday and Saturday mornings, there is a market. On the Santa Monica Pier, there is an amusement park rather that is "old fashioned", Pacific Park, where you can still indulge yourself by taking a few laps of bumper cars facing the sea in sunny California... You can also be dancing every Thursday summer evenings outdoors for free.

Venice is another must-see next to Santa Monica to the south. It is a unique place where you will understand best what the "cult of the body" is in California. Here you will see body-builders and gorgeous California's roller-skates and bikinis. While walking along the sea, on Ocean Front Walk, you will also "rare specimens" of the wildest eccentricity which some are accustomed to Venice. Although it has no resemblance to the atmosphere of Venice, the neighborhood is a charming puny personel place.

Malibu is another landmark of the stars... But there is no "star map" is sold, you do not know who lives where so easily! The houses line up on Malibu's most gorgeous beaches in the city (although much less widespread than Venice or Santa Monica) and the least frequented.

Malibu is a bit protected from the atmosphere of the big city of La and its eccentricity worth the trip for both of these gorgeous dream homes and for the very enjoyable swimming. Beware of the strong currents in the sea. Some of the beaches are more beloved with surfers as Surf rider Beach and Westward Beach.
