Overview
Echo Park is a hip Central Los Angeles neighborhood around Echo Park Lake, with swan boat rentals, lotus flowers and downtown skyline views. It is known for indie music venues, trendy cafés, Sunset Boulevard restaurants and Dodger Stadium, which is just to the north. In the early 1900s the Edendale district was the center of early film making, with Mack Sennett’s Keystone Studios.
