Timeline
16:19
Spend two hours exploring the Petersen Automotive Museum. The top floor penthouse offers great views, but the main attraction is the rotating exhibits of rare cars on the second floor.
17:39
Walk eight minutes to the Farmers Market. Grab a bite from one of the gourmet restaurants or pick up a snack from a produce stand to eat while you walk.
18:09
Walk ten minutes west from the market to Pan Pacific Park. Find a bench near the baseball fields or picnic area. The sun sets toward the WSW, casting a golden glow over the park as you wait for the light to fade.
18:59
Head to El Coyote Cafe for dinner and a drink. It is a ten-minute walk from the park. The atmosphere is fun and lively, perfect for winding down after the evening chill.
Local tip
The Farmers Market is busy in the late afternoon. If you want to avoid the longest lines, grab your food quickly and head to the park while the light is still good.
