Though relatively new on the LA art installation scene, the urban lights are an iconic part of LA and are particularly stunning at dusk or dark. Great spot for a photo shoot of just candid shots.

Los Angeles's own Eiffel Tower is made up of 202 cast iron streetlamps, all of which once stood on LA streets. The lights are now solar powered and come on every night from dusk until dawn . Read more

probably more beautiful at night, still a great place for photoshoots day or night :)

Urban lights is an absolute must-see if you're in LA. Must prettier at night than during the day. Street parking across the street is free at night (post-8pm). So dang romantic !

I'm from Houston so I told my friends to take me to the most touristy places they can think of and this is where they took me. Such a beautiful place to visit at night!

The Ritz-Carlton

One of the city 's most photographed landmarks , this art installation in front of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art is solar powered, with lights switching on from dusk until dawn .

I like the design of the light go there at sunset to enjoy both day/night.

Nice, but not like what you see on social media. Nighttime is a bit eerie in the area, but once you get there, you’ll see a lot of people taking photos, so it’s hard to get a good one alone

You can't visit LA without taking a photo at Urban Light. It's become a must see.

Great for taking different types of photos but try to go there on a weekday, it gets too crowded on weekends.

This work of art featuring 202 restored cast iron antique street lamps is a great place to take a date. It is usually easy to find street parking at night in the area.
