By David Zimmerman


Los Angeles, in sunny southern California, is a cooking pot for Hollywood starlets, relaxed surfers and visitors. Join the crowds and witness all of the glory and attractions in Los Angeles. With many things to do in Los Angeles, you may wonder what took you so long to visit.

Disneyland

Ever since Disneyland Resort opened its gates in 1955, visitors have enjoyd more than only amusement rides for kids. It has House of Blues that includes a music stage for daily live performances. Head over to the adult-friendly Flambeaux's Jazz Club, as well as an AMC 12 Theatres where all ages watch the latest films in first-class luxury.

Knott's Berry Farm

Famous for the arrival of the Boysenberry, Knott's Berry Farm has grown into one of the hot spots in Los Angeles. Get wet at Soak Town featuring water rides and lazy brooks. When your belly begins to rumble, enjoy mouth-watering fried chicken at the feted Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Cafe. If you visit the park in October, scare yourself stupid at the Knott's Berry Haunt. At the planet's largest haunted theme park, you will be bothered by undead and chased by monsters.

MOCA - The Museum of Contemporary Art

One of the very finest things to do in Los Angeles is to check out permanent exhibits by tons of internationally famous artists from America as well as Europe, including Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko. The MOCA has three locations in LA each featuring must see works of art. Schedule a visit to see one of the 20 theme shows presented each year by the museum.
