I'm glad you enjoyed the video! It's fantastic that you've already explored so many places in town. As a resident, I'd like to add a great spot to LA's wellness scene - Quantum Clinic. This floating spa clinic focuses on mental wellness and provides a one-of-a-kind experience blending relaxation and therapeutic advantages.
Wow. You've encouraged me to seriously think of LA as a tourist destination. Thanks!
Ah, that's cool! Happy to hear that. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
Well to change its skyline (my desire)
Wow, that was pretty thorough. This will help us when we visit. Thanks.
That's great! Glad this video was helpful for you. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Enjoy your visit to LA!
God some idea now.
1. 7th Street metro centre
2. Us bank tower
3. Union station
4. Walk disney hall
5. That park in the middle
6. Angels flight
7. City Hall
8. Whilshire Grand
All of that in the city
Thank you for sharing. I visited ten of those places last time I was in town. I would also add the WPA murals in the Terminal Annex Post Office (between Olvera St and Filippes).
Glad you enjoyed the tour William! Thank you for pointing out the murals. I did not know about them and will check them out next time I'm in the area.
This is a superb, interesting and fun walking tour of Los Angeles!! Thanks for all the detailed information about sights to see in this eclectic city….really enjoyed this video. Next time I’m in L.A. there are a number of places I definitely want to see!! 😊
That’s great! Glad you enjoyed the video 😊. Thank you!!
Which streets do you recommend to avoid? I will be in downtown LA this week
Hi, I would avoid the Skid Row area: South of 3rd Street, north of 7th Street, west of Alameda Street and east of Main St.
Can you share me the metro bus map of LA ?
Yeah, go to metro.net and then click Maps & Schedules.
they should have left Downtown LA the way that it was. angel's flight doesn't look right as it is now
You couldnt pay me to take the angels flight no matter how nostalgic it is especially after people died on it
I liked it but you can also take the stairs.
@triptipswithchris yes walking is safer in the daytime. When I lived there I liked Clinton's cafeteria on broadway it made me happy like I was going back in time,7th and Figueroa for coffee and litl Tokyo?
@@triptipswithchris sorry Cliftons cafeteria
@@joeysmith4650 yeah, I’ve been wanting to check out Clifton’s but haven’t made it there yet.
Little Tokyo is great for sure. Love it there.
@triptipswithchris you'll love it if you like nostalgia, haven't tried their food really just desert and coffee ,it's like a strange dream
You're a kinda weird lil guy. But good video. I think you should practice your spanish tho
Yeah I am a weird guy. I don’t think I’m little though. Glad you enjoyed the video. Gracias for checking it out 🙏🏼
I'm weird too may like ot a new sense of belonging
@@triptipswithchris When someone calls you "kinda wierd", maybe you can reflect on 2024's Oscar winning Best -Supporting Actress Da'Vine Joy Randolph's acceptance speech: "God is good ... For so long, I've always wanted to be different and now I realize I just need to be myself"..................... Great tour and well presented. Thank you.
@@antoniahamilton3201 love that! I’ll have to watch that acceptance speech. Thank you Antonia and glad you enjoyed the tour 😊
