Los Angeles and Beyond
No city offers more cultural events, gastronomic enticements, or sports activities than Los Angeles. L.A. is the place for dim sum, Korean BBQ, and inventive cuisines that haven't been "discovered" yet. You can mountain bike in Malibu Creek State Park, hike in Topanga Canyon, rollerblade from Venice Beach to Temescal and back, even ski and surf on the same day. Attend a movie preview or a gallery opening, or night life in Hollywood. Or just sit in the sun - in February - and sip coffee at an outdoor cafe. And on weekends, trips to Santa Barbara, San Diego, and national parks like Sequoia-Kings Canyon or Joshua Tree in the desert are all just a few hours away. Las Vegas is 4-5 hours away by car or 45 minutes by plane. With a little more time, you'll be able to visit the Grand Canyon or Yosemite, ski Mammoth and Tahoe, or hop on a plane to Cabo San Lucas. Housing: Get more information about on-campus and off-campus housing at www.housing.ucla.edu.
