About This Tour

The best way to begin a Friday night in L.A….

By day, the glass and steel towers of the business district exude corporate power. Yet by night, glowing windows, evocative lighting, and reflective skins transform these Modern monoliths into a beautiful and mysterious landscape.

This special walking tour takes an evening stroll among the architecture, public art, and plazas of downtown’s Bunker Hill area. It ends at the Bona Vista Lounge at the top of the futuristic Westin Bonaventure Hotel and Suites for no-host cocktails, dining, and spectacular nighttime views (subject to availability).
