Things To Do
Salsa & Beer
*OUR FAVES* The most delicious Mexican food in town. There is ALWAYS a long wait here, but totally worth it. Pro Tip: Get the cream sauce to dip your chips in.
Dodger Stadium
*OUR FAVES* Ideally, the Dodgers will be in the Postseason when you're here for the wedding -- but even if a game isn't in the cards, it's a beautiful and historic park to visit for a tour.
Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood
Visit one of Hollywood's busiest lots. Plus, many interactive photo ops including the Central Perk set from Friends. Pro Tip: If you go on a weekday, there's a better chance of seeing a celebrity.
Universal Studios Hollywood
This is where we met, so it will always hold a spot in our hearts. But there's also a ton of fun things to do here!
Griffith Observatory
Beautiful views of Los Angeles, from the mountains to the ocean. Plus you can learn a little something about science!
Hollywood Sign
There are a number of Hollywood Sign viewing locations along hiking paths, but unfortunately, homeowners in the area have made it very difficult to access some of the best hiking paths. However, Lake Hollywood Park is a great view of the Hollywood Sign if you want that iconic holding-the-Hollywood-Sign-in-the-palm-of-your-hand photo.
Walk Of Fame
This is a PEAK LA tourist destination. You can find your favorite celebrity's star on the website & go to that block and take a photo with it, or stroll Hollywood Blvd. and see what stars you can find!
Chinese Theatre
This is a PEAK LA tourist destination. This is where the hand and footprints are & where they host MANY movie premieres. It's also attached to the Dolby Theater, where the Oscars are held every year & across the street from the El Capitan. Lots of stuff to see here.
Grand Park
*OUR FAVES* LA's closest thing to Central Park. LA's Art Deco City Hall & various civic buildings surround this park, as well as the Music Center, Disney Concert Hall, & many other beautiful buildings & destinations.
Grand Central Market
Downtown LA market with many food vendors, restaurants, & neat vibe.
Angels Flight Railway
*OUR FAVES* One of Annie's favorite things to do in Downtown LA. Right across the street from Grand Central Market, a fun, silly ride on a historic piece of Los Angeles history.
Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County
A great museum with a beautiful rose garden outside -- and dinosaurs!
California Science Center
*OUR FAVES* The Endeavor, one of the US Space Shuttles is at this museum.
Earle's On Crenshaw
The best hot dogs in South LA.
Santa Monica Pier
Tourist destination, but great for ocean views.
Venice Beach
A unique beach location with many vendors, people, and something for everyone to enjoy.
