El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina de Los Angeles translated, this Spanish phrase means "The Town of Our Lady the Queen of the Angels". A little wordy for the Twitter fanatics of today, but there you have it - the original name for one of my favorite cities - LA, a city that I have had a crush on for years - long before I even set eyes on it. Being a huge fan of Hollywood and movies like 'LA Confidential', and 'Chinatown', as well as of shows like "Six Feet Under' and 'Entourage' I simply love the way the city looks.
Los Angeles is home to five professional sports teams, two of whom are moving to a new $2.6 billion stadium. It also is home to two nationally recognized high school show choirs (John Burroughs and Burbank) and has well known art galleries like the L.A.Louver, Hauser Wirth and Schimmel, Night Gallery, William Turner Gallery, The Loft at Liz’s, MuzeuMM, The Good Luck Gallery and Art Share L.A. The tourism in Los Angeles is also accessible to other charming California cities like Irvine, San Diego and Santa Barbara.
During my trip I stayed in the Melrose district where the Spanish-Colonial style of architecture dominates the landscape. Each house is unique in terms of both design and color - and while the cars parked outside are clearly of this century I look at it and imagine that things haven't changed that much since those homes were first built. And because I feel like the history of LA (as I know it, in my limited capacity) is not that far behind it's easy to slip in to one's version of the past.
