HIDDEN GEMS in Los Angeles you CAN’T MISS!! | Lake Shrine, Abandoned LA Zoo, Murphy's Ranch, & More
SECRET SPOTS IN LA! We all know Los Angeles as the home of Hollywood, Santa Monica, and Venice Beach - but what about the lesser known spots that tourists don't know about? I set out on a one day challenge to explore 5 hidden gems here in LA, and what I found was how unique this city really is. There is so much more to LA than meets the eye, and I'll show you why! I hit up Lake Shrine, Murphy's Ranch, Spadena House, Old LA Zoo, and Lake Hollywood Park, and had the best adventures at all of them!

It's funny that Michael considers Griffith Park as east L.A. He is still about 8 miles northwest of downtown L.A. -- East L.A. is east of downtown. All in all, this is an excellent survey of a few very interesting places. The Lake Shrine is one of my favorites. This video showcases Michael's congenial personality and knowledgeable manner. I hope he has many more to view.
You should do a part two! I never knew about the Shrine, definitely going to visit soon.
going to LA from SF next week for bfs bday, will definitely check some of these out ,thank you!
What a fun day, great acting in the spooky zoo, the trail music was perfect. Great job

Thanks so much! Appreciate it as always!!
Wow, what an awesome vlog! 🌟 I love how you showcased the hidden gems of LA like Lake Shrine and the Old LA Zoo. It's amazing to see a different side of the city beyond the usual tourist spots. Your adventures were so inspiring and fun to watch. If you're ever looking for another unique spot to visit, I highly recommend the Quantum Clinic for float spa therapy. It's perfect for mental wellness and relaxation. Plus, their music therapy sessions are incredible for finding inner peace. Keep up the great work, and can't wait to see more of your explorations!
Cool places! Definitely make part 2!
I miss Los Angeles. Perfect Video. Thank you

Thanks Andrew!! I’ll check it out :)
The old zoo is a nice spot, but it's no secret spot. Hundreds go through it every week, especially on the weekend.

11:51 random ghost dude?🤣
As a native Angeleno I knew of all those spots. BTW, the GP Merry go round is close to the old zoo too which a lot of people don't know about either Two other hidden and/or unknown places are Angelino Heights and Heritage Square. Angelino Heights is one of the oldest relatively undisturbed neighborhoods in LA. Many homes from the turn of the last century. It even still has the old street light posts. Go around twilight and walk around. It's like you stepped back in time Heritage Square is more of a museum of Victorian homes that have been moved there from different areas of the city to create a sort of outdoor architectural museum. Very interesting too. It's off the Arroyo Seco Parkway which is actually its own hidden gem. It's the oldest stretch of freeway in LA. But be warned that the onramps and offramps are very short by modern standards and the highway is curvey. I heard it was designed like that (instead of straight) so driver's wouldn't fall asleep and need to pay attention. Don't know if that is historically correct or just a rumor. Definitely make another part of hidden LA gems
Can't believe I've lived here 30 years and never knew about lake shrine

Does he realize shoes on a power line often means it’s an area for dealing?

All the savages who put graffiti on this places I swear…
Gang banger graffiti is not nice to look at and it is EVERYWHERE.
