Favorite Photogenic Locations In Los Angeles You Can Explore Now!

There's no shortage of things to do in Los Angeles, or at least that seems to be what most think. However, every weekend I still find myself in a rut over what to run out and do. If you live in LA, you've seen Griffith Park, The Getty, and The Hollywood Sign plenty of times. The classic tourist locations are not going to cut it. On top of this, many activities in LA have hefty price tags on them that can set you back quite a bit on your monthly budget. So, I have collected some of my favorite locations in LA that are as photogenic as they are interesting and affordable.

1. Koreatown, and more specifically Snow Monster:

Koreatown has become an explosion of trendy food and drink spots, as well as many popular stores. One of my favorite places to visit is Snow Monster, an adorable boba shop that serves its drinks in light bulbs and mason jars. Pay $2, and you can take the class light bulb shaped bottle home. The interior is gorgeous, and it's a really nice spot to stop by for a refreshing milk tea and an ice cream. The surrounding area is picturesque as well, making this occasion a great photo opportunity!


2. Explore Downtown

One of my favorite things to do lately is to just head downtown and explore the unique streets. I love walking to Angels Flight and taking a ride up, as it finally opened again! After wards, you can head to Grand Central Market across the street to have some ramen or a classic PBJ sandwich. Afterwards, one of my favorite locations is Bottega Louie, which not only serves amazing french food, but also has one of the prettiest interior and exteriors ever. 

3. Visit the Bradbury Building
The Bradbury has some of the most stunning and breathtaking architecture in the Los Angeles area. It's right in the heart of Downtown, and although guests are only allowed up to the second level, as it is an apartment building, the view alone is well worth the visit.

4. Old Town Pasadena

Finally, my personal favorite on the list, Old Town Pasadena is both a wonderful shopping area as well as being quite picturesque. There's no lack of stores, ranging from Sephora and Lush, to J Crew and Tiffany's.
