Most of the Pacific beaches are ca. 30 minutes from the town centre.
Walk along the beach promenade, enjoy a drink in the beach cafes and
watch the street artists. Venise Beach is well known for its small specialised
shops. We also recommend Laguna, Malibu und Zuma Beach.
Shopping facilities in Los Angeles are great! Whatever you’re looking
for, you’re sure to find it in these places: the shopping centre
near the school, Rodeo Drive with its designer shops and art galleries,
Downtown along Hill Street with its various clothes shops, or Chinatown
with its small souvenir shops.
We also recommend a visit to L.A.’s entertainment parks. Live your
dreams in Disneyland, or visit the breath-taking Universal Studios where
you will experience the world of Jurassic Park or Back to the Future
in simulators.

Griffith Park with its planetarium is situated on the borders of Hollywood.
Relax in the Park’s natural environment and enjoy its family attractions
such as pony riding or hiking, or visit a scientific
exhibition. Griffith Park offers marvellous views on the famous Hollywood
sign by day and the bright city lights of L.A. by night.
We also recommend a visit to San Francisco and San Diego, as well as
the Grand Canyon, Yosemite National Park, Joshua Tree National Park,
and Death Valley. The area offers countless attractions!
To wine lovers, we recommend a trip to one of the famous Californian wine
cellars, for example near Napa Valley or Sonoma Valley, north of San
Francisco. Many of the approx. 500 wine cellars are open to the public
and are pleased to offer some fine wine tastings.
