Beyond a non-stop workout, Los Angeles offers plenty of cultural and historical landmarks to keep one busy, from the famous theaters and the Walk of Fame on Hollywood Boulevard and the world-renowned shopping on Rodeo Drive and Robertson Boulevard, to the weirdly fascinating Venice Boardwalk and iconic outdoor event venues the Greek and the Hollywood Bowl.

Of course, those looking to keep the previous night’s party going also have an array of hotel pool scenes to choose from, where they can cool off with the toned and glistening beauties on those hot summer afternoons.
