Visitor Information
Discover Los Angeles, the city's official tourism site, is fun and informative, with an annually updated general information packet that includes suggestions for entertainment, lodging, and dining, and a list of special events. There are two visitor information centers, both accessible to Metro stops: the Hollywood & Highland entertainment complex and Union Station.
The Santa Monica Convention and Visitors Bureau runs a drop-in visitor information center on Main Street that is open daily 9 to 5, as well as three kiosks at Palisades Park, the Santa Monica Pier, and the Third Street Promenade.
