Welcome to the bright lights and big-city allure of California’s largest metropolis. 在这里, A-list celebrities really do walk the sidewalks, triple-shot machiattos in one hand, 手机在另一边. While travelers may bypass much of the city by staying on a network of freeways that crisscross the region, 他们缺少L.A.隐藏的宝石. Turn off onto side streets to discover inviting neighborhoods, 令人难以置信的博物馆, 购物热点. 当太阳落山时，L.A. comes to life in a whole new way, with clubs thumping to the beat of the latest indie band, a flock of starlets swaying in the front row. 屋顶餐厅, 酒吧, and pools draw slinky-sexy crowds, while searchlights arc through the night sky, announcing the latest silver-screen premier.
