If you're looking for an unusual travel destination near LA, I recommend Joshua Tree National Park. It's a place full of uniquely shaped Joshua trees that you can reach by car from LA.
Originally, it was a place where you could see stars at night, but it's difficult to stay there until night without a guide. Also, if you don't have enough time, it's good to rent a car and go on a day trip! 🥰
First, we stop by Riverside, which is on the way from LA. It's a city located in southern California and the home of Victorian-era architecture. Therefore, it's an important historical place. In particular, you can see the statue of Dosan Ahn Chang-ho, who settled and lived in Riverside. You can also see many historical buildings and landmarks, including the Riverside County Courthouse, considered one of the most beautiful buildings in California. There are also museums, theaters, souvenir shops, and squares with many historical and cultural attractions, so stop by here for a while before going to Joshua Tree. 😘

🚗Then we head straight to the national park by car. Joshua Tree National Park is a vast area that even has campsites. Joshua trees are unique to this area and look like cacti, so they are often used as locations for various TV shows, movies, and albums. 📸As photo points, you can take pictures at the park entrance, viewpoints inside the park, and at the end of the road, "Road Close," for a fulfilling half-day tour!

Small but Mighty, World Famous Crochet Museum

From World Famous Crochet Museum
"Joshua Tree's World Famous Crochet Museum was created by artist Shari Elf. She does not actually crochet but loves arts and crafts that are lovingly made by hand. Her friend, folk artist, Ramona Otto gave her 2 crochet bottle poodles years ago and told her she should start a collection. "Really?" Shari replied. But she kept finding cut crochet poodles and then moved to Kansas City where the collection really grew thanks to great yard sales, estate sales and antique stores. A few feet away from the WFCM is Shari Elf's store which is filled with Shari's art and recycled clothing and t-shirts printed with Shari's art. All located at the Art Queen complex of stores, galleries, another museum, The Beauty Bubble and apartments."
Cook coffee in a warm RV cabin, watch the stars in the quiet and dark nights, play in your own small courtyard when the first sun shines... Lonely and happy!
This is a peculiar park, not only with boulders, rocky mountains, gold ruins, but also desert plains dotted with quirky trees. Joshua Tree is a short-lived yucca, located in the National Park between the Mojave Desert and the Colorado Desert. Perhaps because the park is in a desert desert, perhaps because everyone is more familiar with California's famous Yosemite Park and the nearby Death Valley Park, this place is often overlooked. The intersection of altitudes creates an amazing desert flora in the ecologically alternating zone, including the Joshua Tree, a bizarre tree. From the splendid sunsets to the starry nights, Joshua Tree always exudes a distinctive beauty.
