| Los Angeles California From Space Satellite Map / Poster is 36x24 inches, (61x91cm), Landsat 5 data. Detailed natural-color view of the entire Los Angeles basin from 450 miles in Space. Covering Oxnard down to Laguna beach, CA. Encircled by four mountain ranges, Los Angeles is oddly isolated, prompting early chroniclers to describe it as an island on the land. To appreciate the city it should be thought of as five distinct regions: Downtown, Hollywood, The Valleys, Westside and The beaches. The City of Angels though most residents simply refer to it by its initials, LA. It has also been called, at varying times, Lotus Land, to Tinseltown. The city offers a dizzying array of attractions, from DisneyLand to Universal Studios to the Recently finished Paul Getty Museum, and to every cuisine imaginable. |
