CINEMATIC STROLL
See L.A. your way

Driving in Los Angeles can be traumatic. But walking is downright cinematic, thanks to new walking tours through historic downtown. The leisurely strolls, organized by Red Line Tours, lead you past a dense concentration of pre-World War II buildings, many of which served as backdrop for classic Hollywood films depicting life in turn-of-the-century Chicago and New York.
