I have been living in Los Angeles since 2014. Remember that I was dying to explore the city. Still, love to explore more because there is always a new restaurant, new coffee spots and places to visit. I have some list for you whether you’re a resident of L.A. or planning a trip… Enjoy!
Griffith Observatory:Â In my opinion, a beautiful place to see the view of Los Angeles. I prefer to go before sunset. You’re gonna love cotton candy skies with LA view. If you wanna go morning or afternoon, don’t be upset -still beautiful L.A. view over there.
The LACMA – Urban Lights ( Los Angeles County Museum of Art ) : Doesn’t matter day or night, one of the best place to visit, and take a picture with 100 years old Southern California street lamps. They are restored from the 1920s and 1930s and located on Wilshire Boulevard. It’s so instagrammable!
Melrose Place:Â One of my favorite area in Los Angeles. There are many chic restaurants, unique stores, and coffee shops…Â You’ll definitely love to spend your time and explore the many things.
Grand Central Market: Must see location in downtown L.A. The place hosting many vendors since 1917 and provides fresh produces, cultures and variety of cuisines. It is a great experience to be there!
The Broad: It is a contemporary art museum. Must see Yayoi Kusama’s infinity rooms. If you an art lover, you won’t regret it!
Art District, L.A. : It is cool neighboorhood in DTLA. Tons of popular art galleries which is open for public, unique and pop-up stores.. Many great options for a coffee break and a quick launch. You’ll love to see murals and street arts.
Abbot Kinney Blvd. : Hands Down! It’s an absolutely coolest block in America. All the people are nice.. designer stores are unique.. the best vegan restaurants… A wonderful for strolling, dining, seeing the street arts. The environment is so extraordinary! Highly recommend, you’re gonna thank me later.
Venice Canals Walkway:Â Italia vibes in Venice Beach. Yes, you heard right! Nice to take a stroll along the Venice Canals and cross the small bridges… Looking at the cute houses feel great. Just be relax!
Santa Monica Pier and 3rd Street Promenade: This 100 years old landmark is located at the end of Historic Route 66. For great atmosphere and experience the giant wheel on the pier. And remember that the sunset is so magical!  After visiting the pier, spend your time on the 3rd street promenade. Enjoy the outdoor events, shopping and dining!
El Matador State Beach: El Matador is the most popular beach in Malibu. The beach has arches, caves and stunning sunsets. Great to take a picture, explore the all around.
