Los Angeles, the sun drenched home of Hollywood and all its eclectic energy, is a magnet for go-getters and cinephiles, and also a surprisingly romantic destination. There’s a lot of romance to the old glamour of Hollywood, and to a palm-fringed coastline. There’s romance to film-locations, where you can recreate cinematic moments, and L.A. has loads and loads of great places to eat, drink, shop, enjoy art and theatre, and listen to live music.
