SPEND A GREAT DAY IN ECHO PARK
CHECK OUT OUR HOOD!

Echo Park is where urban life & nature call a truce. The peeking views of downtown L.A make the park seem years away in this hidden oasis.

ECHO PARK LAKE

The island in the middle of the lake serves as a bird conservatory creating a
beautiful habitat for animals, plants, and people.

ECHO PARK FARMERS MARKET

Organic & locally grown produce are available every Friday from 3pm until 7pm. The selection ranges from fruits, vegetable, plants, flowers, herb, to even artisan crafts.

HEALTH READY

Hidden behind sunset carrots & red unions are sold at reasonable prices.

KEEPING THE NEIGHBORHOOD GREEN

Organic pinto beans, nuts, & wheat grass are sold at the market as well.

JAZZ & COFFEE

Echo Park is a local & laid back neighborhood full of great coffee shops. Artists & writers gathered at these to have a cup & exchange ideas.

FANTASTICALLY FLAVORED

One of our favorite chill spots--"FIX" hosts a tempting selection of gelato --a must have in the east LA heat...
Its fun to watch locals enjoy pastries while glancing over their newspapers & laptops.

A SWEET PLACE FOR A PIT STOP

Delilah's is an adorable shop where the cupcakes are homemade & irresistible. The bakery has warm atmosphere with its yellow outside patio & welcoming flowers.

THROUGH THE TREES

Nestled up the hill from TAVIN lies the serene Elysian Park. We love to hang on the grass or under the forgiving shade of the trees. There are picnic tables, playgrounds, & a places for a afternoon barbecue with friends and family.

IN BLOOM

Bouganvilla grow along Echo Park Ave.

THE BEAUTY WITHIN TAVIN.............

TAVIN is one of several shops along the street to offer passersby a comfy place to sit & relax.
