💞Recommendation reason: This is the end of Route 66 in the United States There is a beautiful beach, but I didn't go there this time due to time constraints. The Pacific Amusement Park above the pier has a Ferris wheel and a roller coaster. Walking and strolling, I walked for a whole day without realizing it. 📍Address: 380 Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica, CA 90401 🕰️Business hours: Open at 11:00 am, closed on Thursdays Friends who like roller coasters must come and try the roller coaster here. The beautiful scenery here is really great🤩 and one ticket allows you to play twice👍🏻 After watching the sunset and playing in the amusement park, you can go to the nearby shops. On the way, you will pass by a Japanese hot dog shop. The taste is quite good, Japanese sauce plus Western hot dogs. #Santa Monica Pier #Roller Coaster #Sunset

#wecreate Pacific Park is a great spot to visit if you’re looking for fun attractions and games. The best way to get there is by car or taxi, but I took a metro and then walked over there. Once you arrive, you can walk and get lost through the park and enjoy the different rides and games available. There are a dozen rides available, including the Pacific Wheel, West Coaster, Sea Dragon, Shark Frenzy, Pacific Plunge, and Inkies Scrambler. You’ll also have the chance to see children playing and enjoying themselves on the different rides. The prices for different rides range from $5-12 if I'm not wrong. The atmosphere is laid-back and casual full of families and couples, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy some fun.
