Glendale is a wonderful city simply because there’s so much to do. Whether you’re more interested in being outdoors in nature or engaging in something creative indoors, Glendale has it all. And the best thing is that you can pretty much enjoy the variety that Glendale has to offer by simply driving twenty minutes (or less) from your apartments.

Here are some things you can do this spring in Glendale to truly make the most out of your city:
1. Hang out at Echo Park Lake. Be sure to walk around the circumference of the lake at least once (which is a mile) and then check out the nearby shops on Sunset Boulevard.
2. Go to Amoeba in Hollywood! Although there are rumors that this iconic record store may be closing soon, it may be a good idea to go in and see what’s still there.
3. Grab a drink at Dublin’s in Downtown LA. This is a wonderful Irish pub that is sure to help you enjoy life a bit and get your mind off work or whatever it is that’s troubling you.
4. Check out Shatto Lanes in Koreatown. This iconic bowling alley has been here for decades and also has arcade games and pool tables to guarantee you have a blast with your friends.
5. Go shopping on Melrose Avenue. There are many vintage gift shops here that have surprisingly good deals despite bordering West Hollywood.
