Things to do Interesting facts 1. Things aren’t always as they seem – especially in LA. When it comes to nightlife, this is not the city that never sleeps. LA is an early-to-bed city. Liquor laws in Los Angeles require that bars stop serving alcohol at 2am. And if you’re a person who smokes, you’ll have to kick the habit – at least temporarily while in LA. California law prohibits smoking in any enclosed public building. 2. A must-see while in Los Angeles is the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Surprisingly, this honor does not come without a price. A hefty $15,000! Since money plays a major role, many so-called celebrities have been able to buy their way onto the “Walk,” so don’t be surprised if you’re unfamiliar with many of the names. But don’t worry – the great ones are still there. 3. Hooray for HOLLYWOOD! Or is it Hollywoodland? Originally it was. In 1923, the famous sign’s 50-foot-tall letters were used to promote a real estate development. It wasn’t until 1949 that the “land” part was dropped. Over the years, the sign has been altered to spell out different words, including “Hollyweed,” which noted the leniency towards marijuana in the ‘70s. In 1994, surveillance equipment was installed to deter vandals. 4. Designed by famed architect Frank Gehry, the Disney Concert Hall is a sight to see if you’re Downtown. The newest addition to the Music Center and home to the LA Philharmonic, visitors can take a choice of tours through the impressive structure as well as visit the Library of Congress/Ira Gershwin Gallery. Take a stroll along the aerial pathway through their beautiful garden. 5. The largest municipal park and urban wilderness area in the United States makes its home in Los Angeles. Griffith Park has it all – including four municipal golf courses, tennis courts, horse stables, a zoo, and more. The park, named after Griffith J. Griffith, a mining tycoon who donated the park’s 3,000 acres to the city in 1896, has been used to film several movies, including Batman, Jurassic Park, and the classic Rebel Without a Cause.
