Los Angeles Tourist Attractions and Los Angeles Sightseeing
(Los Angeles, California - CA, USA)



Because of the spread out nature of Los Angeles, many of LA's top tourist attractions are outside the central areas of downtown and Hollywood. While there is no shortage of attractions in these central districts, it is important that tourists in Los Angeles don't confine themselves to just these areas, therefore missing some of LA's top attractions and sightseeing opportunities.

That said, central Los Angeles makes the perfect starting point for any tour of the county and you will find many of the tourist attractions here are movie related, such as LA's studios of Paramount and CBS, while Hollywood Forever Cemetery and Mann's Chinese Theater commemorate some of Hollywood's favorite stars. Here are some of the most visited tourist attractions in Los Angeles.
