City of Angels

As with the name so is the city- mighty, glorious, joyful, one that does not rest. Los Angeles has everything for every people and traveller- the beautiful city, expansive beaches, the entertainment industry, and the gastronomical delight, and of course the popular nightlife.

Perhaps no other major city in America has a disputed name as that of Los Angeles. Though it is a Spanish word for The Angels, most Historians have their theory as to the origin of the name.  Whatever may be the reason for the naming, however, as you read through you will come across interesting facts that will make you make this city a must-visit.

A paradise

This city has lulled the immigrants to its paradise for a temperate climate, endless orange groves, and one that offers innumerable opportunities to earn money. An aggressive booster campaign that flaunted the city as heaven on earth, lulled many families from the east and Midwest to shift their base.

These booster campaigns gave countless nicknames to the city, from ‘Land of Eternal Spring’ to ‘The Wonder City of the United States, and also the home of ‘Sunkist Skies of Glory’. But, then the ‘City of Angels’ remains as the oldest and the most popular moniker. The term defines its multidimensional history that is engraved in the immigrants, expansion, mythology, and colonization. At LA you can discover festivals, cuisines, even educational opportunities, and the varied cultures of the communities that have made this city their home.
