Los Angeles is the largest city in the state of California and the second largest in the United States. Los Angeles is a great city one of its own kind in whole world.Often abbreviated as L.A. and nicknamed The City of Angels, Los Angeles has an estimated population of 3.98 million.I visited it last time in July and was impressed with the hospitality and kindness.Every thing from Airport taxi to hotel tour guys all was good.Airport limo was fun to have in such a low price. I was amazed by the choices of transportation,like you could have a choper to go to downtown for few hundred dollars. All museums and downtown were full of fun loving people.Los Angeles is the place man,i would love to go their over and over.
