Glitz and glamour typically describe the most populous metropolis in California, as millions flock to its sunny beaches and star-lit scenery every year, but LA is also one of the most prominent museum destinations in the US and a mecca of modern architecture.

Los Angeles County encompasses not only the center of LA, but also several separate communities that ring the city like individual jewels in a necklace. Localities like Santa Monica, Hollywood and Bel Air, etc. each have their own atmosphere and attraction for resident and visitor alike, linked by a labyrinth of weaving highways and criss-crossing freeways. Of course the legendary LA traffic jams can make it feel as though every resident and visitor is on the road at the same time.

That’s when the LA freeway map inset will enable you to take the next exit and find an alternative route to your destination. You’ll easily find your way from Malibu out to the Valley and back to Manhattan Beach. Detailed insets of Santa Monica/Venice, Long Beach Harbor, Pasadena, Downtown LA and LAX all feature hotels, sites, educational and government locations as well as the LA Metro system.
