Venice Canals Walkway, Los Angeles

This is a must see place when visiting LA / Venice beach area. It's only a short walk from the main beach. There use to be 7 canals which were created to mimic the canals in Venice. Since that time though, some of the canals have been filled in for housing, which only leaves a couple left to be viewed. Great to walk around and snap those tourist pictures. I would recommend to anyone who is in the area.

Nice area to walk around and see interesting homes on the canals. A few wooden bridges to walk over the man-made canals - good for people/bird watching and photos. Not much to do other than walk around the canals. The good thing is the canals are walking distance to Venice Beach. Walking areas near the canals are not too wide.

No it's not Venice but Venice! Welcome to the Venice canals. Very charming place, where you will find beautiful small houses along the channels. Everything is pretty and flowery, water running through, birds singing. Good spot for the skaters who want to take some risk :p be careful with the water

Nice place to take a stroll if you're in the area, it's only like 10 minutes from the beach and isn't too overrun by tourists either. The canals are part of the residential area with houses all around, so I'm not sure if the canals are necessarily an attraction in the traditional sense, but theyre worth checking out. The houses lining the canals are interesting to, with varies designs and styles.

Such a weird project, but definitely worth a walk through this interesting area. Though I didn’t get the feeling that the locals were too pleased about us enjoying the views. The water is shallow and not that great, but some interesting water craft, nice gardens and just general strangeness make it worth coming here at least once
