旅行小贴士：不去就会后悔的洛杉矶圣地

The best of Los Angeles: readers’ travel tips

旅行小贴士：不去就会后悔的洛杉矶圣地

Winning tip: From Venice Beach to Malibu, and back, by bike

首选：从威尼斯海岸到马里布往返骑行

LA is known as a car city, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it by bike too. The ride along the coast northwards is fantastic. From Venice Beach, a cycle route runs right by the sands, to pass Santa Monica Pier. The route is shared with the bronzed and beautiful LA inhabitants out running, cycling and rollerblading, and passes beach volleyball courts. It continues along the bay using the Pacific Coast Highway (some of it away from traffic on the wide shoulder), past the town of Santa Monica, beautiful upmarket suburbs, and finally into Malibu. As you get to Malibu, you are close to the Santa Monica Mountain natural reserve, and pass some great little canyon reserves to enjoy along the way. I am not a city person, but I really enjoyed this beautiful day ride. I even saw dolphins! Of course, you can do as long or as short a ride as you like. The round trip to Malibu is about 40 miles.

洛杉矶以汽车城著称，但这并不意味着你不能在骑行中获得快乐。沿着海岸线一路向北骑行感觉棒极了。从威尼斯海岸出发，骑行路线就沿着沙滩，途经圣莫妮卡码头。拥有着漂亮的古铜色肌肤的当地居民，在这条路线上跑步，骑行，滑旱冰，这条路线还途经沙滩排球场地。在太平洋海岸公路（公路的一部分在宽阔的路肩上远离交通）上一直沿着海湾，经过圣莫妮卡镇，这片美丽的高档郊区，最后到达马里布。到达马里布之后，你就已经接近圣莫妮卡山脉自然保护区，沿路还会经过一些非常棒的峡谷保护区。我不是一个城市人，但是我非常享受在外骑行的这一天。我甚至看到了海豚！当然你想骑行多远都是可以的。到马里布的往返旅行大概40英里。

Have a laugh, Hollywood

在好莱坞开怀一笑

The Hollywood Improv is an institution and a great night out. We were told to expect famous comedians propping up the bar, but we went for one of the cheaper nights with no names we knew. But we couldn’t have had a better time even if improv performers such as Chris Rock or Jerry Seinfeld had been there. The dimly lit informal atmosphere is exactly what you want from a comedy club and the crowd was a good mix of locals and tourists all clearly there to have a good time.

好莱坞即兴表演是一个俱乐部也是晚上出行的一个好去处。我们被告知酒吧里表演的都是一些著名的喜剧人，但是我们去的比较便宜的那一场没有一个人是我们认识的。但是即使是即兴表演家克里斯.洛克或者杰瑞.塞恩菲尔德在那，我们也不会拥有那么快乐的一段时光。昏暗的灯光，随意的氛围正是你在喜剧俱乐部所需要的，观众们都是一些去那里享受时光的当地人和游人。

Pure shores: Catalina Island

卡特琳娜岛:纯净的海岸

Santa Catalina, 20 miles south of Los Angeles, is a wonderful treasure. If you want an unspoilt beach and beautiful blue seas for snorkelling, this is the place to visit. The island is one hour from LA. There are lots of activities from around $40 for adults, including wildlife and zip wires, and a falconry experience. It was great to be able to look out over the harbour and back to the mainland. I used visitcatalinaisland.com for my activity trip. Boats to the island leave from Long Beach and San Pedro.

卡特琳娜岛位于洛杉矶南部20英里，可谓是人世间遗留的宝藏。如果你在寻找一处未被污染的海岸和一片能够潜水的蓝色海洋，这就是你必须要去的地方。这座岛屿距离洛杉矶只有1小时的车程。这里有许多价值40美元的可供成年人参加的活动，包括野外生存，缆车还有放鹰捕猎。在天上俯瞰海港之后回到地面的感觉很棒。我曾经为了我的旅行浏览过卡特林娜岛旅行网站。开往小岛的船只从长滩和圣佩德罗港口出发。

Craft beers by the beach, Venice

威尼斯海边的精酿啤酒

On a Sunday head to Venice Ale House at 2 Rose Ave to watch the sun setting over Venice beach while drummers play in the background. It has a great atmosphere, excellent food – much of it organic – and drink at reasonable prices, including about 30 craft beers. Stay after dark and you will be rewarded with the parade of lit-up bicycles, playing hip-hop old school style.

某个星期天的午后前往威尼斯啤酒屋，在第二玫瑰大街看日头落下威尼斯海岸，周围有鼓声响起。这里有惬意的氛围，好吃的食物-大部分都是有机食品-酒水价格也合理，包括精酿啤酒。待到黄昏时，你就能有幸看到闪亮的老学院嘻哈风的自行车游行。

New Beverly Cinema

新贝弗利影院

This theatre in West Hollywood (7165 Beverly Blvd) was bought by Quentin Tarantino in 2007 to save the property from redevelopment. Some films shown are from Tarantino’s private collection. It makes a nice change from the giant multiplexes not to mention a must for Tarantino fans.

这座影院位于西好莱坞（贝弗利大道7165号），是昆汀.塔伦天奴在2007年为了避免地产被重新开发而购买的。一些上映的电影是塔伦天奴的私人珍藏。它在多映厅影院做了一些非常好的改变，更不用提这对于华伦天奴的粉丝来说是必须做的事。

Pier review, Santa Monica

圣莫妮卡-码头观光

Santa Monica is my go-to place in LA. I love walking along the vibrant pier – be sure to go on the Pacific Wheel, with stunning views of the beach from the top. Sitting on the beach and watching that magical golden sun setting behind the mountains is probably my favourite sight in the world. Then at night it unleashes a different kind of beauty, with the permanent glow of the lights, and the sound of people in bars.

圣莫妮卡是洛杉矶必去的地方。我喜欢沿着充满活力的码头散步-一定要登上太平洋轮，向下俯瞰海岸边的美景。坐在海岸边，看着金灿灿的太阳落下山头可能是我在这世界上最喜欢的美景。到了晚上，她又散发出不一样的魅力，灯光闪耀，酒吧里人声攒动。

Sit in on a TV show

出演电视节目

A couple of months before you go make sure you check which TV shows are on while you are there and pick up some free tickets. I had great experiences seeing productions of Big Bang theory and Jimmy Kimmel last time I was there.

在你出行之前几个月就确定好当你到达时有哪些电视节目会录制，并且找到一些免费的票。我上次去洛杉矶的时候就观看到了《生活大爆炸》的制作过程，还见到了吉米.坎摩尔，那真是一次很难忘的经历。

LA buses

洛杉矶的巴士

The bus routes are numbered in a way to indicate the speed of the buses. The buses numbered between 1 and 299 are local buses which stop often and take the longest to reach a destination. Buses numbered between 300 and 799 are faster buses known as either Limited Stop, Express or Metro Rapid. For example, two of the bus routes on Santa Monica Blvd are the number 4 and the 704. Both follow the same route but the 704 is faster.

巴士的线路以数字来表示，用以表明巴士的速度。标号1-299的巴士是当地的巴士，这些巴士会经常停站，到达目的地通常会花费很长时间。标号300-799的巴士稍微快一些，因为它们要不是有限停站，就是快速车或者地铁快速。例如，圣莫妮卡大道的两个巴士，4路和704路。它们走一样的路线，但是704号巴士更快一点。

The best deal on public transport

最实惠的公共交通工具

The Metro Pass covers the rail lines and the main public bus company including the rapid commuter buses. At $25 for one week of almost unlimited travel, this has to be one of the cheapest public transport passes around. We used it to get to Santa Monica,the California Science Centre (South LA), downtown, Beverly Hills, Hollywood etc. Very prompt and frequent running and there’s a great app to track the buses. We beat our friends in a car using buses and it also avoids the high parking charges and rip off valet parking that is everywhere in LA (especially at hotels). Just watch out after about 8pm when a number of bus routes stop running.

交通一卡通包含了地铁和主要的公共巴士公司包括计算机快速巴士。一周25美元包含了几乎所有的非限制的交通，这是最便宜的交通卡之一。我们用它去圣莫妮卡，加利福尼亚科学中心（洛杉矶南部），市中心，贝弗利山庄，好莱坞等等。非常的及时又便利，并且有一款非常棒的软件能够追踪巴士。我们乘坐巴士比我们开车的伙伴还要快，并且不用担心高额的停车费和洛杉矶到处都是的代客停车服务的费用（尤其是酒店）。只是要注意有一些巴士在晚八点之后就不再运行。

Store with a story, Laurel Canyon

月桂谷-有故事的商店

At the intersection of Kirkwood Drive and Laurel Canyon Blvd is the Laurel Canyon Country Store. The wooden-floored grocery shop/deli/liquor store/cafe has been a neighbourhood hangout since the 1930s but really came into its own during the 60s and 70s when you could find Joni Mitchell, Carole King, the Byrds and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young jamming and writing songs together on the patio. Mama Cass Elliot lived in the basement for a short time. Jim Morrison was a neighbour and he immortalised the store in the Doors song Love Street. Mick Jagger and David Bowie bought their English chocolate bars here. The shop hasn’t changed much and still has the feel of those heady carefree days, quite removed from the rest of LA. I just love sitting on the veranda with a coffee and the papers and you never know who might pop in.

在柯克伍德和月桂谷大道的交叉路口，有一家月桂谷乡村商店。自20世纪30年代以来，木质地板结构的杂货铺/熟食店/酒水商店/咖啡店就是小区居民的聚集地，但是直到60和70年代它才有了自己的风格，那个年代你可以看到琼尼.米歇尔，卡萝尔.金，伯兹和克罗斯比，斯蒂尔斯，纳什和杨挤在露台一起写歌。卡斯.艾略特曾经在地下室短暂居住过。吉姆.莫里森曾是这里的居民，他在门户乐团的歌曲《爱街》使这家小店不朽。米克.贾格尔和大卫.博维在这里购买英式巧克力。这家小店没有过多改变，仍保留着鼎盛时期的那种随意的感觉，和洛杉矶的其他地方不同。我喜欢坐在走廊上，一杯咖啡，一份报纸，你永远不知道下一个走进来的人会是谁。

Mission possible, San Juan Capistrano

圣胡安卡皮斯特拉布道所

The Spanish architecture and the historic mission at San Juan Capistrano, just to the south of Santa Ana (50 miles from Downtown), make for a great day trip by Metrolink train from Union Station. Visitors can buy a $10 day pass on weekends. As well as the Mission, cafes, art galleries, and wine bars are all close to the station. Further down the line is San Clemente stop (if hungry, try the Riders Club Cafe) where it is wonderful to stroll along the beach to the pier, watching the surfers. Walk up the hill to San Clemente’s shops and restaurants before returning to LA from the San Clemente Pier train stop.
