11 Must-See Attractions for a Dreamy Trip to Los Angeles

Sunset Boulevard

Aside from Hollywood Boulevard, no other street in Los Angeles has as much cultural relevance as Sunset Boulevard. In the early days of filmmaking, stars built their luxurious homes along Sunset on the west side of the city.

Several of these houses still remain including the Minnelli Mansion, although it’s currently abandoned. In addition to opulent housing, Sunset also boasts some of the most famous music venues from the 70’s and 80’s including the Whiskey-a-Go-Go, the Roxy Theatre and the Viper Room.

It’s also home to the celebrity hangout Chateau Marmont, a hotel with ritzy onsite bar and restaurant.

Zuma Beach

One of the largest and most popular beaches in Los Angeles, Zuma has become synonymous with California’s surf culture. Located in Malibu, on the northwest side of the county, Zuma’s out of the way enough to be a lot less crowded in comparison to the Santa Monica and Venice beaches.

In fact, it’s somewhat of a hidden treasure that’s often frequented by actors and musicians. Zuma has also consistently been used as a film location over the years, most famously as the site of the disturbing final scene in Planet of the Apes with the sunken Statue of Liberty.
