What to do and see in Los Angeles, California (CA): The Best Things to do Adventurous

June 11, 2021 Janean Rudisill

Hollywood beckons to tourists who long for a brush with Tinseltown glamor. Tour movie studios, slip your hands into the famous prints at the TCL Chinese Theatre, or indulge in a celeb sighting at one of LA’s white-hot nightspots. Spot your favorite star while shopping at The Grove, or forget all about the famous eye candy as you take in the iconic artwork at The Getty Center. For a different type of star-gazing, peek through the telescopes at the Griffith Observatory.

Highly recommend for adults and kids. We went with 2 families and had a great time. Gets everyone thinking and energized. One family was from LA and got to see places they haven't been to before and the other was from DC and was able to experience LA differently than just the common tourist spots.

The Basement A Live Escape Room Experience

The Basement is the number one Escape Game center in the US, with one continuous story line and 4 seperate experiences/chapters to choose from. We offer an immersive experience where you will be locked in a room. You will then have a set amount of time to find your way out using the hidden clues, key, trap doors, and items within the space. Various events will "distract" you throughout your journey and make the task of escaping slightly more difficult. Can You Escape? HISTORY: Established in 2014. The Basement: A Live Escape Room Experience opened for business with its flagship room "The Basement" in October 2014 and has since opened two more experiences: The Boiler Room and The Study. Dark House Entertainment is currently in the process of opening 3 more locations throughout the United States.
