Cheap & Cheerful Trip to India - Artesia

Or Little India to be more precise.

Located on Pioneer Blvd between 183rd and 187th street in Artesia, Little India will astound you with the sights, sounds and yes, smells of another culture. The food is amazing, the music other-worldly and the selection of bulk spices and unique gift items are impressive.

Okay, but many Angelenos - let alone out of town visitors - don't even know where Artesia is. Just Southwest of the junction of the 91 and 605 would be the quickest way to orient yourself.

Since Little India is a neighborhood rather than institution, the usual hours and parking info is harder to share. However I found a write up that give a brief write-up of some of the stores and restaurants of Little India complete with addresses and phone numbers.

Enjoy.
