Los Angeles is a city where artists express themselves everywhere on the walls. And they have plenty of space to express themselves, as the avenue is dozens of kilometers long !


๐ŸŽธ Tourists flock here and do not fail to take a picture in front of the painted walls. The most famous ones are the wings on different backgrounds, which make the joy of everyone because it allows them to take a picture of themselves as angels, and when you know that the nickname of L.A. is none other than the City of Angels, you have to play the game ! ๐Ÿ˜„
