The Best of LA - Part III


Today I will be brief… these are some precious hidden treasures LA has, please don’t miss them:
The Getty Center gardens
Well, if you don't want to spend through your nose and still want to have fun, LA has a lot of free things to do. Besides the beaches and parks you can go to Universal city walk, but I doubt you won't at least eat there, Well but the best I saved for last "The Getty Center".
 Probably one of the best art Galleries in The World, for sure my favorite in the USA. J. Paul Getty, an eccentric millionaire considered one of the richest man in the history, and also known as a miser ( extremely cheap), had great appreciation for art  an impressive collection and the desire of showing it to the public. From a dream was created the Getty Center. It is located at the top of the hill on Sepulveda Boulevard and offers a wonderful view of the city, moreover it is the recreation of an Italian Village where you can visit a variety of art exhibitions from everywhere and from different centuries. It is a beautiful rich place to visit the Architecture and the gardens are amazing. If you love art or simply enjoy eating outdoors it is a must go. There is a parking lot at the bottom of the hill where you can park for $15,00 before 4:00 and $10,00 after 4:00 . Park your car and take the train uphill. The best is to go in the morning and spend many hours there, enjoying, not only the art but also the amazing gardens. What a place for a great photography.   


Nightlife: Sunset Boulevard

Los Angeles has thousands of places to eat and bars for all pockets. If you like party just go to Sunset Boulevard,  there you can find many options for the night from traditional clubs like Whisky a Go Go to comedy places like the Laugh Factory where Jim Carey and many other respectable comedians started, 
The standard Hollywood hotel has a really cool lounge, where you can dance and drink and if you feel hungry don’t waste your chance to go to the traditional Carney Train, it is located few steps from the Standard and it serves one of the best and fatty cheap burgers, believe me it doesn’t look as good as it  tastes . 
You can find all types of restaurants as in any other big city, but if you want to save some money don’t waste your chance of eating in many Mexican restaurants.


That's all for now .... If you want more information about the places I write just click on the name of the place it is always linked to its official website
