Los Angeles is known as the mecca of cinema because it was here that the 8 production companies that started the history of the seventh art were founded. In addition, the Latin influence is undoubted here, more than 48% of the inhabitants speak Spanish and it is the city with the most Mexicans outside of Mexico. Originally this place was founded in 1781 as the Town of the Queen of the Angels on the Porciúncula River, so a visit to the Olvera square where the city's Mexican heritage is exalted is a must. Just 15 minutes walk from this place is Chinatown, a peaceful and instagrammable neighborhood that alludes to this country. Obviously, you can't miss Hollywood Boulevard, better known as the Walk of Fame, a place that covers several streets with more than 2,700 stars on the ground that recognize important figures in film, television, music, radio and theater. There you'll find the Chinese Theater, where you can see the hands, feet and signatures of important celebrities imprinted on cement blocks on the floor. Next to it is the Dolby Theater, where the Academy Awards are held every year, although if you want to take the tour to see it inside, you must reserve it at least 2 weeks in advance on its official website. In order to get incredible photos of the famous Hollywood Sign, I recommend going directly to The Last House on Mullholand, a site that offers the best view of the sign. Angels Flight is the shortest system of vehicles on tracks in the world and has appeared in famous films such as The Muppets or La La Land. Speaking of this last film, I tell you that I had breakfast at Sarita's Pupusería, a place inside the Grand Central Market and where one of the scenes of this film was recorded. On a golf cart I visited Paramount Pictures, where hundreds of movies have been filmed. I was able to sit on one of the benches where Forrest Gump was filmed, see the building where Elvis Presley spent long periods of time, and see the inside of a film studio. You can't miss taking a photo of yourself in the installation of 202 lanterns called Urban Lights outside LACMA. As for museums, I visited the Academy Museum, where you can learn about the history of cinema, visit a room dedicated to CasaBlanca, another to The Godfather, see several Oscars, as well as the costumes used in important films. Rodeo Drive is the ideal place for shopping and fashion lovers. Another of the most visited spots is the Griffith Observatory, where admission is free. There you can look through several telescopes, learn about astronomy, and see the Hollywood sign from another point. And speaking of places with free admission, in downtown Los Angeles you can find two contemporary art museums, MOCA and The Broad. Santa Monica is one of the most famous beaches in this place, and right there is its famous pier, the site of the Pacific Park whose main attraction is the only solar-powered Ferris wheel in the world. While you're there, you can enjoy a beautiful sunset at Venice Beach and also get to know the artificially created Venice canals to emulate this Italian city. For food, I enjoyed the typical In n Out hamburgers, Pink's hot dogs, and a Mexican food restaurant called Mariasol located on the Santa Monica pier.
