Museums

Los Angeles doesn't rely solely on film and television to offer locals and visitors its share of cultural attractions. It also boasts some of the best museums in the country, including the following:

• Los Angeles County Museum of Art: Located in the central LA neighborhood of Miracle Mile, LACMA is the largest art museum in the western United States. LACMA features permanent collections ranging from Greek and Roman art, Islamic art, photography, and film, and the Urban Light installation in front of the museum's Wilshire Boulevard entrance is one of LACMA's most notable features, for those looking for free things to do in LA. (Bag-check policy: LACMA offers storage for bags over the dimensions of 14.5" x 8" x 17".)

• J. Paul Getty Museum: Situated in quaint, upscale Brentwood in West LA, Getty housed the world's greatest private collection of art before opening to the public in 1974. The permanent collection includes Western art dating from the Middle Ages to the present day, from the likes of Rubens, Rembrandt, Monet, Manet, and Cézanne. (Bag-check policy: The Getty allows visitors to check bags and luggage larger than 11" x 17" x 8").

• The Broad: Only a short walk away from Union Station LA, the Broad is a leading contemporary art museum that offers free admission to its permanent galleries. It houses works from household names including Warhol, Lichtenstein, and Koons. (Bag-check policy: The Broad offers bag-check services, though strongly encourages storing them elsewhere. We recommend dropping your bags off with a Bounce partner nearby in Downtown LA).

It's definitely worth a stroll to get a glimpse of how the one percent live. For more wallet-friendly options nearby, check out Westfield Century City or the Beverly Center.

• The Grove: Located in the Fairfax District, the Grove is one of LA's most popular shopping, dining, and entertainment hubs.

It's no surprise that a city as big as Los Angeles has incredible dining options—but where do you even begin? If you're looking to find a great brunch location in LA or some of the best street food that the city has to offer, take a look at our guides to find out all our favorite locations in Los Angeles.

If it's dinner you want, the list below doesn't even scratch the surface, but as far as quintessential LA fare goes, you can't go wrong with these options:

• Asian cuisine: Check out the respective authentic delicacies in Little Tokyo, Thai Town, and Koreatown. Other favorites outside of these ethnic enclaves include the various outposts of Night + Market for Thai and Nobu (in West Hollywood or up the coast in Malibu) for first-class sushi and Japanese food.

• Venice eateries: Venice is one of the best LA neighborhoods for eats that are as trendy as they are delicious. We recommend eating lunch at Gjusta, grabbing a drink at Cafe Hinano, and indulging your sweet tooth at Salt & Straw.

• In-N-Out: Sure, In-N-Out is all over the Southwest and Pacific, so it isn't particular to LA. However, if you're in town from out of state, you'll likely be lambasted if you don't stop by for a meal at this burger chain that garners a cult-like following. Take your pick from several locations across the city, including one on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood and the South Sepulveda Boulevard outpost on your way to or from LAX.
