The world continues to experience the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. Although the effectiveness of vaccines is already being observed in many countries and cities, the fact that the virus has variants means that avoiding crowded places is still prudent. However, people always look for a way to be distracted, to be able to leave home, exercise, and continue learning.

Next, we present five great places in Los Angels that are not so crowded and where we can go from learning to exercising.

1. The Huntington, Library, art Museum, and Botanical Garden

A little bit of Italy in California. Approximately a mile and a half long, located in Venice Beach, we find a small neighborhood of beautiful houses surrounded by four shallow water channels. You should know a lovely and quiet place either as a romantic walk with your partner or if you want to visit each magical place in this city.

5. Angels Flight

By Jartemenko

At just 0.056 miles long, it is considered the shortest railway in the world. More than a means of transportation, it is a historical and tourist icon. Sinai and Olivet are the two little carriages that travel the short route between Hill Street and Grand Avenue in Bunker Hill. Its charm has been used by the producers of hundreds of films, such as "La La Land."

These 5 wonderful places are just a small sample of how varied Los Angeles can be: hurried, calm, cultured, simply surprising, both for the tourist and its city dwellers.
