A true hidden West Bay gem:a long set of concrete slides that you slide down with improvised cardboard sleds.So much of a gem, in fact, that it seems like they keep clamping down on things literally with shorter hours each time I come here, enforced with locked gates all the way up and down. Nevertheless, if you do get here when its open, its great fun for all ages.

Love walking down Colorado boulevard in Old Town. Each building is unique. Stop window shopping often to look up at the unique designs that crown each building. Imagine when this was that famous Route 66. There are so many wonderful places to eat. Youll want to return h ed re often as I have. Bring your friends here. And dont miss walking under Pasadena City Hall.

I loved it! It was really great! Me and my wife took the train. We took the Gold Line and got off at the Del Mar station. It was really awesome. We were able to then walk to Old Town Pasadena. There are a lot of great shops there. And its a great way to escape Los Angeles and we didnt even need a car! Cant wait to go back and try those different shops.

I was only waiting for a bus but noticed that all the restaurants were so full that although out on sidewalks; that it didnt make a difference whether they were wearing masks or not. This is probably why Pasadena should close them down because the people arent paying attention. The sidewalks were so crowded I had trouble getting around.

This is a beautiful town full of shopping and great restaurants. FYI, Pasadena requires face masks be worn or you will be fined. So make sure to wear a mask. Be prepared to pay for structured parking & street parking.

Beautiful but parking is bad. You need to pay for parking. Metered or by the hour / day. Delivery drivers, be ready to fight for a pick up spot or to park at metered parking. Be ready to carry some quarters.

Beauty!!The City Hall is a nice place to visit. Beautiful architecture and soothing environment are one of the benefits you will get. The sidewalks are wide and have sufficient place for walking around.

The dining areas outside have been widened onto the right lane of the street. Sufficient space to social distance. Most people wore masks.

A wonderful location for lodging and restaurant and entertainment, Rose Bowl is in walking distance. And you close by to jump on the highway to head to Malibu thats a hour drive or Palm Springs, Downtown LA is less then 30 minutes away and Dodger Stadium is close. Best location to visit a lot nice places.

Nice place to visit with an Old Town charm. The place gets a little crowded at dinner time and the prices can be up there at most restaurants but it is a nice day out of the house anytime the weather is nice... Which is quite often in LA.

The houses are worth driving around and looking at some incredible architectural styles and historic homes that can be enjoyed streetwise. If you are looking for Spanish Revival antiques there are some incredible shops. Good restaurants, great neighborhood for a walk, close to the Metro. Pasadena has recovered from some bad years in the 70s and 80s.

Old Pasadena has an array of old buildings some been carefully renovated and all very interesting architecturally. There are no bus tours, only private cars for small groups which tend to be expensive, so best research yourself and get out there. There are some great shops, antiques, bakeries, teashops and lots of restaurants. Some upmarket stores too so something for everyone.

Ok so Old Town is Pretty. Its fun. Its got good food, shopping, spas, clubs, movie theaters, multicultural, comedy clubs, art, nearby museums, etc. But there is a heavy police presence when the clubs close, just a heads up.
