VENICE BEACH
Venice beach is another must-see in Los Angeles. Often branded as Muscle Beach due to the large amount of glistening body builders and scantily clad folk constantly on the search for admirers, people watching is the number one pastime. Where Main crosses Rose Street, visitors are greeted by Joseph Borofsky’s Ballerina Clown figure .This serves as an appropriate icon for an entertaining beach community, which is a strange mixture of vanity and the psychedelic Sixties. Ocean Front Walk is the hub of Venice with busy market stalls, cool street performers and of course the constant parade of finely tuned bronze bodies. Just inland from Ocean Front Walk, canals wind through the residential neighborhood and thus the name Venice originated. Many people have actually seen Venice without realizing, as it has had several starring roles on the big screen, including the musical Grease, starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John and Orson Welles’ Touch of Evil. If you are interested in joining the crowds on Ocean Front Walk, then renting a bicycle is probably the best way of making the most of it. For a little more relaxation, take a leisurely stroll down Main Street which connects Santa Monica and Venice and check out the art galleries and bustling shops. |
