LOS ANGELES

Enjoying laid-back summer vibes in the City of Angels

How do you know it’s summer in the land of eternal good weather? The light gets even more golden, and the opportunities to actually use that picnic basket you’ve moved with four times abound. You can use the plastic champagne glasses, and real cloth napkins and everything.The inner hedonism of Los Angeles is most apparent in the summer, when the city wholeheartedly attends outdoor concerts, movies and festivals with very little irony, and a surprising reservoir of patience for traffic and parking.If you’re just visiting, do join the party.

Of course, there's always the beach, but that's not all that you can enjoy for free.Museums in this city have art to occupy you for days, and in the summer that's not all. Free concerts and outdoor events make art accessible and entertaining.

These tours and offerings are only available in the summer, and worth a go even if you feel like you own this town.
