Introducing Los Angeles
Whatever your version of the American Dream, the chances are good that some neighborhood, beach, event or chance encounter in Los Angeles will make it real for you. All you need is a credit card, car, beach towel and some lively curiosity: LA will do the rest.
Looking for the edge? Visiting LA is like pushing the fast-forward button on the movie of your life. In this city swirling with energy and creativity, tomorrow’s trends are born, nurtured and released. Relaxation? Beaches, parks and yoga studios help you on the tranquil path. Food and drink? Loosen your belt for boundary-pushing fusion cuisine, a United Nations of eateries and wines. Arts and architecture? Rejoice if the names Wright, Gehry and Greene & Greene mean anything to you, for LA is where they reached their heights. Music? Domingo to the Doors to Dr Dre. They either cut their musical teeth or conquered the world from here, or both.
