Gay life in Los Angeles

Los Angeles, we like or not! In any case, this city does not leave indifferent. It's certainly noisy, stressful and sometimes even stifling but once put aside all these inconveniences, Los Angeles is an inescapable mythical city.

The main gay district, West Hollywood, is situated in the city center, but Silver Lake in the North of Down Town is also very appreciated by the gay community. This one is very present in Los Angeles because 40 % of the citizens of the city are gays and it makes of Los Angeles the gayest city of the country. No difficulty to find a gay or gay establishment - friendly in this city.

However, Los Angeles is immense and bars are often taken away some of the others. Nothing is made in feet in Los Angeles, it's necessary to plan in advance the circuit for not waste the time. A more cultural circuit and less "clubbing" is also possible because the city possesses its own gay theater as well as the other numerous entertainments gays. Finally, Los Angeles is about to celebrate its 41th Gay Pride and appears among the first cities to have to organize this movement.

    West coast

    Tout le monde rêve de Hollywood mais L.A. c'est bien plus que ça.
    Mes endroits préférés sont la jetée de Santa Monica au coucher du soleil de préférence, Malibu et son petit resto sur la jetée (avec un peu de chance vous pouvez voir des dauphins tout en mangeant), l'observatoire de Griffith et sa superbe vue sur le fameux sigle Hollywwod. C'est là que James Dean à tourné une scène de la fureur de vivre. Et pour finir la third street pour faire du shopping.
    Los Angeles peut faire peur la première fois mais si on lui laisse une chance c'est une ville fantastique

    LA CITE DES ANGES, le REVE

    La cité des Anges, un voyage de deux semaines qui m'a fait rêver. Impression d'être dans un film. Hollywwod (notamment Hollywood boulevard), Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Malibu et j'en passe... Rodeo Drive le top du top!!! Los Angeles est à découvrir et à revoir. Sortir le soir dans des bars branchés est également possible, les gens sont hyper sociables et très cools. La Californie est magnifique.
