Los Angeles has a definite stereotype: sunny sandy shores, glitzy glamorous celebrities and maybe a bit of vapidness and superficiality. But even in a city that embraces those well-worn tropes for tourists, there are still some hidden gems across area that can be uncovered and enjoyed.

说到洛杉矶，大家脑海里都有个既定印象：阳光海滨沙滩，魅力四射、夺人眼球的名流，并可能有点无聊乏味，肤浅浮华。但即使在这个各大景点游客都耳熟能详的旅游胜地，仍有些瑰宝等待你去发掘与欣赏。

1. NUART THEATRE

L.A. is the land of movie stars, and Hollywood ,and small independent movie theaters to show them off. The Nuart Theater is one of my personal favorites: a classic one-screen theater with a large beautiful marquis to display the latest release, indie flick or foreign film. The Nuart also frequently hosts Q&A’s and panel events that go along with movies, and bring together entertainment personalities and famous filmmakers.

L.A.是电影明星、好莱坞、小型独立电影院大放异彩的圣地。Nuart影院就是我个人最爱之一：这是个古典的单屏影院，with a large beautiful marquis，会放映最新发布，独立制片或者外国引进的影片。Nuart影院还经常与电影同步举行问答会和见面会，汇集众多娱乐界大腕儿与知名制片人。

2. THE LAST BOOKSTORE“最后”书店

In the heart of downtown you’ll find The Last Bookstore, which might very well be the last one that you’ll ever need. Inside the massive space are thousands upon thousands of books and incredible displays that take advantage of the cavernous multi-story store. The bookstore, which hosts readings, signings and cultural events, also has galleries displaying local artists’ work.

“最后”书店坐落在市中心，可能真的是你最后才会选择闲逛的地方。书店空间开阔，陈列了成千上万本书与其他展品，充分利用了书店洞穴式的多层空间。除了书籍阅读、签售会、文化活动外，这家书店还有几间展览馆，专门陈列本土艺术家的作品。

3. THE GROVE格罗夫购物中心

A great place for both eating and shopping, The Grove hosts expensive brands and affordable labels alike, along with a bunch of other different amenities in this outdoor mall. What’s even better is that it iss next door to the original Los Angeles farmer’s market, which has moved from its original humble beginnings to become a foodie paradise.

Grove是购物和吃饭的好去处，这个户外购物中心不仅有各大高端品牌和大众品牌入驻，还有很多其他的便利设施。此外，Grove隔壁就是洛杉矶的农贸市场；曾近简陋不堪的农贸市场如今俨然也已成为美食天堂。

4. LUCKY STRIKE

Down for some bowling? Lucky Strike has got you covered. Located in L.A. Live, a revitalized neon lighted area of Los Angeles, it’s right next to some really great bars, restaurants and nightlife – as well as some world-famous sports facilities like Staples Center (home to both the Lakers and the Clippers).

想打保龄球了？Lucky Strike绝对值得一去。坐落在L.A.Live，洛杉矶灯红酒绿的中心地带，紧邻几家赞爆的酒吧和餐厅，夜生活丰富——对了，球迷们关心的Staples中心（湖人队和快船队的主场）也在附近。

5. THE WILDE THISTLE

A bit more of an eclectic experience, The Wilde Thistle is in Culver City on the Westside of Los Angeles. A lively Celtic cafe that figures to host the bohemian local art community and artwork, you’ll always see interesting people, listen to intriguing discussions, and maybe even catch a live performance or two.

The Wilde Thistle在洛杉矶西边的卡尔弗城，去那儿更像是个折衷的体验。这是家凯尔特式咖啡馆，陈列了波西米亚当地艺术作品；在这里，你总会看到有趣的人，听到新奇的讨论，可能还会看到一两场现场表演。
