Universal Studios
Universal Studios is a great place to come if you have kids. However, while the rides are amusing, are not as great as they’re made out to be. Experience it once if you like, but if you’re going to shell out the cash, check out Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, take a lunch and drinks. You’ll save a ton of money, energy and time by doing so.Ã?¯Ã?¿Ã?½
Hollywood Boulevard
Hollywood Boulevard is the epicenter of Los Angeles, once home to the greatest studios and a milieu of popular celebrities and visitors. Now, it boasts pricey souvboutiques and souvenir stands, as well asÃ?¯Ã?¿Ã?½expensive, genericÃ?¯Ã?¿Ã?½restaurants.

The Farmers Market
The farmer’s market at the Grove is an excellent way to enjoy your trip to Los Angeles. Cruise for fresh fruit and veggies, awesome food from local food stands, and if you’re lucky you might see a star or two. You are much more likely to run into a star randomly going to the farmer’s market in Hollywood than on Melrose Avenue.Ã?¯Ã?¿Ã?½
