A 10 minute walk to Echo Park Time Travel Mart, where you can find a Temporary Time Stop Kit or perhaps a collection of bottled Dead Languages. It’s a hybrid time-travel themed shop, but it’s also a publishing house and creative-writing center for Los Angeles students, run by the non-profit organization 826LA. Proceeds from the Mart keep the writing programs free for students.

Sightseeing
A newly "reconditioned" park with coffee at the boathouse along with the paddleboats. It's clean and safe and beautiful, with lotus and lily pads and "Lady of the Lake."
