Celebrate the diversity and history of the American West at the Autry Museum. The Museum contains three institutions with huge collections and multiple exhibits. The Southwest Museum contains a vast collection of Native American art, textiles and jewelry. The Museum of the American West displays many artifacts and the Institute for the Study of the American West shares its research about the area.

Spend a glamorous night (or two or three) at the Hollywood Bed & Breakfast. Located next to Hollywood Boulevard, this quirky bed and breakfast is within walking distance of several LA attractions, including Sunset Strip, Grauman's Chinese Theatre and several world-class restaurants. Guests at this three room B&B have full access to the parlor, dining room, kitchen, screening room and pool.

If you are willing to travel a bit out of the main LA area, be sure to add the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden to your destinations list. This gorgeous, 127-acre garden and outdoor oasis is nestled into the low-key San Gabriel town, near the mountains. The Arboretum houses luscious plant collections from all over the world, including many rare and endangered species.
