La Brea Tar Pits Tours and Tickets - page 2

Go back in time and explore the real Los Angeles and its most important Historic Districts. These gems were built when LA had less than 200,000 inhabitants and today they are hidden inside this megalopolis of 15 millions. We will go from Angelino Heights, with its best example of pre-1900 Victorian houses; to Windsor Square, designed to be the most exclusive LA neighborhood with the largest lots, and Beaux Arts and Craftsman style homes; to Hancock Park, the dream of one of the most famous LA Mayors, known for its two-story, Palatian period revival homes—Tudor, Gothic Revival, Spanish Colonial, American Colonial, Mediterranean. We will stop also the world famous La Brea Tar Pits, with its incredible fossils collection of extinct mega-fauna of the late Pleistocene. Museum not included. The tour will end in South Carthay, a neighborhood developed in the 1930's by the Greek developer Spyros with its Spanish Colonial Revival houses, stained glass windows, tiles, and shower glass etching.
