Vista Hermosa Natural Park

Most photos of Los Angeles skyscrapers are taken with the 110 Freeway involved in one way or another, but the view from Vista Hermosa Park is just as stunning and does not receive enough credit. Although it is near the corner of the 110 and 101 freeways, visitors will be able to get a shot of LA’s well-known cityscapes without any vehicles in the frame. It’s especially nice to come here right before the sun sets so you can see the buildings illuminated by the dipping sun and see watch the lights from the windows become more and more prominent as darkness takes over. This is also a nice place for picnics.
