City information
Los Angeles photos report
City of South California (200 km from the Mexican
border). It is the second town of the United States after New York.
The primitive city based by Spanish in 1781 became American in 1850,
developed on the edges of the river Los Angeles, 24 km from the
Pacific, near the current business district. During its prodigious
expansion, it extended in the surrounding hills but remains still
limited by mountains San Gabriel, San Bernadino and Santa Ana who
prevent the smog (mixture of fog, exhaust gas and industrial smokes)
to scatter. Tourist and university town, it is world-famous for its
cinematographic industry with Hollywood
Weekday activities include outings in and around
Los Angeles, and Santa Barbara. Weekend trips are planned for regional
cities and points of interest. Students are chaperoned by either a
school staff member or a professional tour guide on all activities.

Los Angeles has its share of top universities. The
University of Southern California and UCLA rank with the best
anywhere. Here, close to Beverly Hills and the beaches of Santa Monica
