If Steven Taylor remembers correctly, he may have already written an article about the top things to do while in Los Angeles. It’s not surprising to remember that article well because it was a very fun article to write about. However, it’s also good to mix this article up a bit. Instead of another article talking about the funs and joys of Los Angeles, this time, Steven Taylor is going to write about the top five things anyone should not do while in Los Angeles.
LA is a fun city to live in. It is truly one of the best places to visit among tourists. But of course, just like with any other big city, Los Angeles also has places and certain activities and attractions that don’t come highly recommended.
Now before anyone reacts, Steven Taylor wants to make it clear that this article is not meant to shame or ridicule anyone or any place or business with this article. It’s also important for everyone to know that this article is for educational purposes only. The aim of this article is not to make fun of the selection of activities or venues listed below, but to give everyone Steven Taylor’s honest opinion on why those said activities or attractions are not as popular compared to the others in the city.
And now, with that out of the way, it is time to look at the top 5 things not to do while in Los Angeles!
Going to the Sunset Strip during the day
During the daytime, Sunset Strip is just another area where it’s filled to the brim with regular cafes and shops. There’s nothing really exciting going on in the area in the morning. Steven Taylor recommends visiting Sunset Strip at night because this is the time of the day where the area’s beauty shines up, thanks to the city lights and the attractions in the area.
Relying on Public Transportation
There is absolutely nothing wrong with saving a few hundred dollars in one’s wallet by not renting a vehicle or using Uber. In fact, it’s a very common thing to do nowadays. Except that one doesn’t rely on LA’s public transportation. Los Angeles is one of the most notorious cities when it comes to heavy traffic, so Steven Taylor recommends visitors to bring their own cars or, when possible, rent a vehicle. This will make visiting LA so much easier and more enjoyable!
Walking the Venice Beach Boardwalk during the Weekend
The Venice Beach Boardwalk looks absolutely lovely during the day. Except for when the whole area is jampacked with people. So if one is allergic to crowds, do stay away from the Venice Beach Boardwalk during the weekend.
Jaywalking
When visiting Los Angeles, the worst thing a visitor or tourist can do while in the city is jaywalk. LA has the most efficient, if not the strictest, police force in the United States. If one is feeling lucky, one can probably get away with just a warning, but most of the time, jaywalkers often get an expensive fine. Even celebrities wouldn’t want to mess with the police.
Gawking at Celebrities
Los Angeles is, of course, home to a multitude of celebrities coming all the way from Hollywood. So expect to see a famous actor or actress while shopping in the downtown area or while just relaxing on a public beach. That said, avoid harassing or pestering these people for autographs or selfies; these are also regular people who are enjoying their well-deserved rest!
