Reply #3: I can't imagine why anyone would come here to SEE anything.... [View All]

The farmer's market isn't anything special; santa monica bay is polluted, Venice Beach is a freak show, and I suppose kinda fun, if that's what you like; what's the point of canned entertainment based on media, like Universal Studios and disneyland?

I mean think about it; everything LA 'has to offer' is based on rampant and greedy consumerism; shopping and media.

Chinatown is VERY small, Olvera Street is almost embarrassing, or let's go look at a train station? (Union station)

Restaurants are mediocre at BEST; there is NO theatre to speak of; museums are again, mediocre at best.

I live here and I LOVE it, but I would never travel here to visit... does that make sense? Go to San Francisco, see the Monterey Bay Aquarium; stroll Santa Barbara and Hearst Castle.. see the redwoods and sequoias or be amazed at El Capitan in Yosemite or pan for gold in the Merced river near Mariposa, in the Sierra Nevadsa... but there really, honestly isn't anything of merit to DO in Los Angeles.
