If you still are wondering what to do in LA, a trip to Universal Studios Hollywood is the reigning number one activity of what to do in LA.
I'll never forget as a kid going to Universal Studios when I was a kid in the 1970's and having an amazing time seeing some of the sets of movies and television shows I had seen. Once our group got to see the Bionic Woman, Lindsay Wagner stepping out of her limo.
Today Universal Studios has grown to be much more polished than it was 35 years ago. So many more movies have been made into attractions and thrill rides that it is not even recognizable as the park I knew as a kid.
Special effects are light years ahead of where they were 35 years ago and you can get to see how some of the magic is done with a behind the scenes Studio Tour of their 3D and CGI technology that is used in most every motion picture these days.
Smash hit movies have been made into thrill rides such as Revenge of the Mummy, Jurassic Park and Shrek 3D, along with television shows like the Simpsons. There's also King Kong 3D and in May 2012 the Transformers will have a ride of their own.
The City Walk is a faux urban area where you'll find the bright lights like Vegas along with 30 restaurants, 30 shops and 6 night clubs.
There's no question that Universal Studios Hollywood is still the top idea of what to do in LA! Right now if you go to Viator.com you can get a general admission ticket for $77 and you'll receive a second day free. So 2 days in the park for the price of one!
