Los Angeles, day by day

Los Angeles spreads a dozen cities' worth of sights across a basin, so the way to see it is one area a day: Downtown's historic core and its art, Hollywood and Griffith Observatory, the Getty Center and the beaches. Start with three days that keep the driving to a minimum, with the opening rules that matter in 2026.
