Travel and Leisure ~ ” Give Back to the Environment at Fryman Canyon – You can help counteract the effects the local car culture has on the environment by planting trees with the folks at Tree People, then spend the afternoon hiking Fryman Canyon, a lesser-known trail that’s much more invigorating than being stuck on a star-seeking tour bus.
Immerse Yourself in the Watts Towers Architecture – Crane your neck at the historic Watts Towers, a series of 17 interconnected sculptural structures built over 33 years by Italian immigrant Simon Rodia. An iconic symbol of Los Angeles, the tallest of the towers reaches a height of over 99 feet, all of it made from ceramics, bottles, tiles, shells, and other scraps contributed by the local community. While entrance to the towers is tied to an admission fee, you can explore the outside of the magnificent structures at no cost.
