Millions of visitors arrive each year in Los Angeles eager to
experience for themselves the epitome of the American Dream: to
find the self-indulgent living soap-opera lifestyles, experience
firsthand the images that are strangely-familiar thanks to the 'big
screen', and walk in the footsteps of the stars. The fantasy worlds
of Disneyland and Hollywood, the famed extravagance of Beverley
Hills and Malibu, and the sun-soaked beach culture are just some of
the attractions within this 'City of Angels'.
Los Angeles is not really a city but rather a sprawling
metropolis constituting more than 80 smaller city areas woven
together by a daunting network of traffic-congested freeways
without a clearly defined centre. LA is just one of these cities
with Downtown at its heart, and lying outside the city limits is
the surrounding conglomeration of cities that comprises LA
County.
Los Angeles offers a dazzling variety of attractions and
world-famous amusements. Downtown is a mixture of cultures and
local communities: the traditional herbalists of Chinatown's Bamboo
Lane; Little Tokyo with its sushi bars and Japanese gardens; and
the narrow Latino-influenced Olvera Street. Los Angeles County is
endowed with a rich diversity of backgrounds and is a mix-and-match
of people from 140 countries speaking 96 different languages, of
those who have left home to seek acceptance for ideas or
unconventional lifestyles not tolerated in the more conservative
parts of the country, and would-be stars with dreams of fame and
fortune. West Hollywood is the focal point of gay and lesbian
culture, and the posh beachside resort of Santa Monica and
body-builders at Muscle Beach, as well as the childhood fantasy of
Disneyland are all a part of the diversity, although not always a
harmonious one. There are exciting museums, cinemas featuring every
conceivable production, swanky boutiques with the latest fashions,
comedy clubs, poetry readings and coffee house recitals, and music
of every kind played in various venues throughout the city.
Underneath the huge 'Hollywood' sign on the crest of the
Hollywood Hills, the high energy and pleasure-seeking atmosphere,
bold billboards, sexy sun-bronzed people, bright lights and fancy
cars are images of a city that everyone loves to hate; but whether
one likes what one finds or not, Los Angeles must be experienced at
least once in a lifetime.
