features Valdez’s oil painting on a 1953 Good Humor ice cream truck portraying the forced removal of a predominantly Mexican American community for the construction of Dodger Stadium in the late 1950s. In 2004, Cooder invited Valdez to collaborate and create a painting to align with his album “Chavez Ravine” (2005), a musical interpretation of the neighborhood’s history. Posing a visual contradiction between the eviction and the ice cream truck, Valdez depicts Dodgers owner Walter O’Malley, former LAPD Chief William H. Parker, J. Edgar Hoover, and displaced families. Shown alongside Valdez’s preparatory materials, 
draws from the style and history of Mexican and American muralism and Chicano car culture. Recently acquired by LACMA, the work is a monument to a disturbing chapter in L.A. history and symbolizes struggles across the country about affordable housing, eminent domain, gentrification, and discrimination.

Universal Studios Hollywood: Self-Carnival of DreamWorks This hillside movie Disneyland is essentially a giant advertisement for the Hollywood industry. For $149 a ticket, you get the qualification to participate in the commercial fantasy. &quot;Harry Potter&#39;s Wizarding World&quot; is undoubtedly the biggest cash cow. When the owl mechanical dolls in the wand shop window wink at you, when the butter beer&#39;s sweet foam is covered with beards, the most stubborn Muggles will temporarily believe in magic until they see the staff uniforms reveal Bluetooth headphones. The Jurassic World Rapids is a carefully designed wet seduction, with a large mouth of the Tyrannosaurus&#39; blood basin during an 80-foot dive, which effectively stimulates dopamine secretion more than any horror film. The real behind-the-scenes egg tour in the studio. Shuttled in the real scene of &quot;King Kong&quot; and &quot;Jaws&quot;, watching the fire hose spray &quot;rainstorm&quot;, only to know that the movie magic is only a precision calculation of gear and hydraulics. It is recommended to enter the park on Wednesday morning, when the first tram passes the empty streets of the western town, You will not know whether this is an abandoned set or an unawakened dream of Hollywood&#39;s golden age.

Disneyland: The carefully calculated fairy tale illusion This 1955 theme park is essentially a happy factory. When you walk through the arches of the Sleeping Beauty Castle, you step into a utopia built with dollars, neon lights and industrial fragrances. Star Wars: The Milky Way Edge is the most expensive fantasy. The Millennium Falcon cockpit buttons are so real that the alien uniformed staff will use Klingon-like greetings to make you instantly believe you are in a distant galaxy. By contrast, the mechanical puppet cruise of &quot;Little World&quot; is like sweet mental pollution - the replay of the nursery rhyme that is automatically replayed in your brain three hours later. Night cruises are the real magic moments. When electronic floats light up the streets of small American towns, When fireworks blow up Mickey&#39;s shape over Sleeping Beauty Castle, the most sophisticated adults become children with enlarged pupils. This is precisely Disney&#39;s smartest design: it sells rides, not rides, but a short-lived mental symptom called &quot;Believe in Magic.&quot; It is recommended to go on Tuesday and you will see the dolls in costumes sneaking against the wall while there are few people - the most authentic moment in the fairy tale kingdom.

Griffith Observatory

Planetariums

Griffith Observatory: The junction of the Starry Sky and the Earth This art deco building, completed in 1935, is suspended on the Hollywood Hills like a giant astronomical instrument targeting the Los Angeles Basin. Free and open setting makes it the city&#39;s most generous viewing platform. Fu Ke in the main hall is the most philosophical. The brass hammers slowly deflect the trajectory of the star map floor, silently proving the physical facts of the earth&#39;s rotation. When the Tesla coils on the basement floor were performed, artificial lightning burst in the dome, turning the scientific demonstration into a modern witchcraft show. But the true souls are on the night rooftops when city lights spread like magma beneath their feet, and the visible galaxy hangs overhead, forming a barren war between heaven and man. It is recommended to arrive an hour before sunset. First look at the sun on the west terrace as the Hollywood sign is gilded, then line up in the dusk to touch the astronomical telescope. The couples in line, the photographers on tripods and the children counting stars cast overlapping silhouettes on the metal shell of the telescopeperhaps more worth observing than the celestial body itself. Don&#39;t forget to look back at the Greek theater-style dome when you leave, and the bronze statue of Einstein is smiling in the shadow of the porch, as if you already know all about human obsession with the universe.

Santa Monica State Beach

Beaches and shores

生长在海边的果果

Santa Monica Beach is a free attraction, with a long coastline, soft sand, a long dock plank road, a playground, or the end of Route 66 that runs through the United States. Very beautiful. Many tourists from all over the world. Traveling all the way, I saw a lot of street artists performing, each with its own characteristics. Suitable for leisure and vacation
