Los Angeles, California Family Vacation
Know Before You Go
Printer-Friendly Version- At a Glance
If there was ever the opportunity for a well-rounded family vacation, it's a trip to L.A. There are plenty of cultural and educational attractions developed with kids in mind (i.e., Kidspace Children's Museum, Noah's Ark exhibit at the Skirball Cultural Museum, the Griffith Observatory) and an amazing landscape for the nature lovers in the family (the beaches at Santa Monica and Malibu, the gardens of San Marino, the Hollywood Hills). Of course, L.A. is the capital of pop culture, too. Kids love to see the stars on Hollywood Blvd. and teens especially delight in getting a first-hand look at Venice and Beverly Hills.
