What do TV series, such as Arrested Development and MasterChef and movies, like Grease and E.T the Extra-Terrestrial have in common? They were all made in Los Angeles’ Culver City. Named after its founder Harry Culver, the city is much like a “second Hollywood”, with a number of production studios based here, like Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Aside from its touch of Hollywood glamour, the city is home to plenty of art appreciation. There is the Culver City Arts District, the iconic Kirk Douglas Theatre and several museums, such as the Wende Museum, Museum of Jurassic Technology (don’t go in expecting any dinosaur-related exhibits here) and the Museum of Tolerance, which takes a look at the atrocities of racism. If you’re planning to be in this LA neighbourhood soon, check out our list of the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Culver City, Los Angeles.

8. Large architectural Hollywood studio (from USD 150)
This is a large wooden cabin that sports warm, inviting interiors designed by Parisian architect, Johann Bertelli of Atelier Panama. Much of it is made from recycled and repurposed materials and it is a testament to Bertelli to see how he has put them all together to create an environment that’s vintage and rustic, yet sleek and modern at the same time.
Hollywood Boulevard and Franklin Village are just mere steps away. The owner is extremely friendly and will be happy to give recommendations on where to go in the city. Don’t get caught staring too long at him though. You may recognise him as a guest-star from popular TV series, like Grey’s Anatomy, Heroes and Suits.
