Los Angeles

LAX

These days, Los Angeles is known as much for its beaches, sunny climes and expansive hiking trails as it is for being one of the best food cities in the U.S. But this sprawling oceanside town is forever built on paradox, with ritzy fine dining nestled right alongside street taco vendors. The smartest visitors make a point to enjoy all the disparate parts of L.A., whether it’s checking into a luxury hotel downtown, taking in city views at Kenneth Hahn Park, or ordering a round of boozy spritzes while poolside in Silverlake.
