Travel Nursing
in Los Angeles

Who'd want to travel to Los Angeles?

People who are searching for a lifestyle filled with year-round attractions and things to do. Long known for its film and entertainment industry, particularly Hollywood, Los Angeles is a destination that has drawn aspiring actors and actresses from across the country for over a century.

With that comes the hillside Hollywood signHollywood Boulevard, all your favorite actors' stars among the 2,500 plus on the Walk of Fame and the Chinese Theatre. If you're lucky, you might even spot a celebrity or two out for a shopping trip on Rodeo Drive.

Los Angeles is known as a culturally diverse city with a reputation for being the creative center of America. The thriving culinary scene, incredible shopping, outstanding museums and parks provide a wealth of activities all year long. And with abundant sunshine and moderate to hot weather throughout the year, a suitcase typically includes shorts and T-shirts for almost any visit.

Sunseekers who enjoy the warm climate and beaches will find plenty of things to do and interesting neighborhoods to explore. Upgrades to the public transportation network in recent years and the addition of a Metro Bike Share in downtown LA have made getting around and sightseeing easier than ever.

Thrill-seekers can visit Universal Studios Theme Park known for its mind-blowing rides based on blockbuster movies. Nearby is CityWalk, a three-block entertainment area, with shopping, dining, and theaters. Another option is a guided tour of the studios to explore behind-the-scenes of some of Universal's most popular movie sets. Just outside Los Angeles, Disneyland is Disneyland Park, with rides and experiences in elaborately created theme sets. The Disneyland California Adventure Park, created during one of the expansions, holds even more action and adventure, with seven lands based on movie themes.

The Natural History Museum has numerous galleries and an extensive permanent collection that covers a range of topics, it is best known for its collection of dinosaurs. The 14,000-square-foot Dinosaur Hall has an awesome display of dinosaur skeletons, including a series of Tyrannosaurus rex fossils, known as the growth series, featuring three full skeletons that range from baby to adult. Also on display are a Triceratops and a Stegosaurus.

Runyon Canyon Park is a 160-acre park known for its hiking trails and magnificent views of Downtown Los Angeles. Its convenient location near Hollywood and the Hollywood Hills makes it a popular place with celebrities—if you've seen paparazzi photos of celebs hiking in Los Angeles, they were probably taken at Runyon. Trails run from 1 to just over 3 miles and range from easy to strenuous.
