Preface · Event 0: Where LAX Begins and Ends
(Picture fromEventbrite）
I spent three years in my life in this city in Los Angeles. I experienced many people and things here, and witnessed more people and things. I laughed at myself and said that apart from sorrow and joy, there is life and death. If there is the most memory in any corner of this place, it must be this huge airport, where the time starts and ends, there are all kinds of departures and reunions, but the most unforgettable thing is always your farewell.
So I understand why even if Faye Wong is not willing to sing, Yuan Weiren insisted that he should add this "Love Song LA" to his works.
"Remember the airport in LA last summer
You look like a bunch of flowers
Kept watching in the arrival hall
Afraid of my presence disappearing beside you ... '
I once saw this achievement-filled California XNUMX thing on the Internet. Every Californian who loves to play will find many things that have not been experienced before. This achievement guide is used as California memories in the future or in the future ~

★★★★★ Things to do
Highly recommended
Deservedly
★★ Worth trying
★ Unsatisfactory
☆ Negative points roll thick
Los Angeles
1. Go to John Wayne Airport in Orange County to see the statue of John Wayne
(Picture fromplaces2explore.wordpress）
I've been there in person, it's just an ordinary county-level airport. If it's not a hardcore fan, there is no need to pay a parking fee for a sculpture. The appearance of this article made me deeply doubt that the original author was not a John Wayne fan and probably only lived in Orange County for many years, and stumbled upon it.
Evaluation: ☆
2. Go to Long Beach to see Queen Cruise Queen Mary, and if there is a chance, come for a date on a coast cruise
(Picture fromghostlyactivities）
Titanic's sister ship, a ghost ship at sea during World War II. Yes, this place is indeed a good place for a cruise date, the dinner is luxurious and the price is expensive. Recommended for Halloween. The Halloween party here is a signature event no worse than Universal Studios.
Evaluation: ★★★★
3. Go surfing at Huntington Beach, or watch others surfing
(Picture fromwikipedia）
Beautiful beach, one of the best beaches in LA.The first episode of the Korean drama "Heirs" was filmed at Sandy's Beach Grill (don’t ask me why I know -_,-).The beach itself is very large with many areas. LA beach is one of the best.Due to my physical fitness, I can barely watch others surfing~
Evaluation: ★★★★
4. Take a wedding photo at Malibu Beach and reflect the holy promise in the sunset on the coast
(Picture fromtripwow.tripadvisor）
Most of the beaches near Santa Monica have a stigma, but here near Malibu, you can meet stars. In addition, there are many alternative places for such a sacred thing! No Hawaiian crater, the Caribbean Sea, or the Aurora under Alaska, how could it not be here.
Evaluation: ★★
5. Drink a beer at the Santa Monica Pier, watch the sunset and enjoy the performance of street performers
(Picture fromalikgriffin）
Los Angeles's well-known beach is actually the worst beach. I want to say that there is no one. The nature of this place may be like Tiananmen Square, and after visiting it, it feels like China Beach, and there are many people, and it is not necessarily to take a sun or water activities just to take pictures.
Evaluation: ★★
6. Take a photo with the oncoming SpongeBob at Universal Studios Los Angeles
(Picture fromflickr）
Famous places in Los Angeles. After buying tickets (usually annual tickets), they basically go to the rhythm of accompany their classmates to accompany their parents to accompany the basic friends. In the future, this place is no less familiar than the Avenue of Stars. SpongeBob is actually out of date, now is the age of the minions (but it looks like it will soon be out of date ...). There is also a Universal Studios in Orlando, and Los Angeles features movie tours (with a small change each time) and Transformers. In the waiting area of Transformers, Megatron with twice the height will appear regularly, and the opportunity is rare. There are also special events for Halloween, 2015Tips near Universal Studios Horror NightThe squad is ready for everyone.
Evaluation: ★★★★★
7. Hike Newport Beach & Balboa Island & Crystal Coast, the most beautiful coastline in Orange County; admire the flower ocean house in the starlight of the coast
(Picture fromcommons. wikimedia）
Everyone who comes to Balboa Island will lament that a rich life is great. The island garden bungalows are even higher than Venice's canal bungalows. Newport beach is a small bay, and there are whales and dolphins watching all year round. It is worth a try.
Evaluation: ★★★★
8. Visit the boutiques along Venice Boardwalk at Venice Beach, LA to experience the bohemian style
(Picture from360blog.nautica）
The bungalows have been compared with Balboa Island, and the small craft shop is probably a place that can barely preserve the artistic atmosphere. Some individual craftsmen live here and are a good place for a leisurely walk. However, Venice Beach itself is the worst beach where LA can kick off the Santa Monica throne. The main reason is that I will not say it because the politics are correct.
Evaluation: ★
9. Watch the big birds on the reef on the sands of Laguna Beach, stroll through the small shops full of art in the town, and taste gelato
(Picture frompictures of world 3）
Another beautiful beach in LA, one of the best in LA beach. It's about 20 minutes from Newport Beach. There is a state park near the sea, and the sunset is just as beautiful. It's actually worthwhile to taste gelato not far away, but a researched member of the team said that killing would not tell us where the best one is.
Evaluation: ★★★★
10. Rowing a boat on Catalina Island, when the sea is clear, the waves are clear in the setting sun on the front line of the sea and the sky, returning to the shore while the shadow of the moon
(Picture fromvisit catalina island）
An island from Long Beach, about an hour away. Here you can experience almost all water sports including weight diving. Camping and chalets on the island are everything. A great place for a two-day short vacation in South Canada. There are wild flying fish schools on summer evenings. The only drawback is that the most shallow water here is a herbivorous black fish, which is too ugly, which causes a lot of fun in snorkeling. There are many discounts to visit Catalina Island on your birthday."Go to Catalina for your birthday and spoil the whole world!" 》.
Evaluation: ★★★★★
11. Have a barbecue party at the idyllic cottage inn at Big Bear Lake. After dinner, ride the lakeside with friends and talk.
(Picture fromleahloveshomes）
Big Bear Lake is a ski resort for residents of downtown Los Angeles, and there are many people who come to play in winter. The lake itself is beautiful, and it has no flavor without boating during the ice age. Staying in a chalet for a weekend, talking about life and making wine happy.
Evaluation: ★★★★
12. See Van Gogh's paintings at the Getty Center in Los Angeles at the foot of Santa Monica
(Picture fromgetty）
Getty Center is an art gallery. There is also a Getty Villa, a manor house, a 20-minute drive away. Both Getty are sacred places of art. Instead of losing many comprehensive museums, they are dwarfed by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
Evaluation: ★★★★
13. Go to Palm Springs to see the magnificent sunset in the desert oasis surrounded by palm trees
(Picture fromoutdoor resort palm springs）
In Palm Spring, you can go shopping and go to Joshua Tree. You can choose to take a large cable car to watch the sunset, but the sun is blocked by the mountain. The state park on the top of the mountain can be visited. Incidentally, it is very close to Desert Hills, the largest hypermarket. See details"Palm Springs".
Evaluation:
14. Go golfing at a golf course in Newport Beach, Southern California, be jealous of the caddy's salary, and be enamored with the smile of the caddy
(Picture frommehdikhosh）
Newport Beach Golf Course is so small that I am not jealous at all.
Evaluation: ☆
15. At the Griffith Observatory in LA, watch the night view of Los Angeles, the coast lights, the moon is moving
(Picture fromjohn maclean）
Every friend who comes to Los Angeles, I will take them to this place, over and over again, as if time keeps pace, it will slow down the city for a few seconds at night. A city spread like a chessboard, with dreams woven by everyone in the traffic, on a road with a speed limit of only 55 miles per hour. I looked inexplicably at the night sky, and then drove the unknown.
Evaluation: ★★★★★
In the future, there will be San Diego, San Francisco, Highway XNUMX and National Park articles, so stay tuned ~
