A unique folk-art masterpiece, this 99-foot-tall group of steel towers is decorated with scrap metal, bed frames, bottles, ceramic tiles, and thousands of seashells. One of LA's famous local landmarks, the towers were created by a construction worker who toiled over them in his spare time for 30 years until their completion in 1954. Very off the beaten path.

Famous for its signature Korean style deep-fried chicken, The Prince has made its mark as the go-to restaurant for chicken and beer. Walk into The Prince and find yourself immersed within a classical antique décor - the red and gold walls, paintings, the red circular booths as well as the vintage lighting set the interior apart from all other restaurants. The Prince, in addition, has a decorative bar in the center of the hall as well as a back bar. With its antique atmosphere and unbeatable prices, it is no wonder that The Prince has been continuously acknowledged for its exceptional food, service, and, above all, historic décor.
