Get your motor running and head out on LA's iconic roadways (nope, not freeways). The open road is liberating, the anticipation of adventure at every turn. Historic Los Angeles Roadsides will steer you to towns and attractions along classic roadways. Step back in time on Route 66, which zigzags through 31 towns from Claremont to Santa Monica. Admire 19th century architecture in Pasadena, get the scoop on Hollywood history, see the site of a murder-suicide in the Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills, and walk in the steps of LA's founders downtown. You'll soak up more than ocean views and sunshine as you cruise along Pacific Coast Highway. Take a stroll on the Redondo Beach horseshoe-shaped pier, tour the Will Rogers ranch in Pacific Palisades, and watch surfers catch a wave in Malibu. The curving, scenic roadways in the Santa Monica Mountains lead to historical ranches along Mulholland Highway, the enchanting Topanga Canyon, and Laurel Canyon, a wild rock and roll scene in the 1960s. Journalist and Los Angeles native Mimi Slawoff invites you to join her on a tour of LA's classic roadways. They're journeys in themselves with historical and whimsical roadside attractions in beaches, mountains, valleys, and deserts.
