- elle gamboa jr.June 4, 2019Angel's FLight is a fun place to those touristy selfie shots. It's the shortest rail in the whole planet. It's only 300 feet ( 91 meters long ). Several Hollywood movies have been shot here.Upvoted Feb 3
ⒹⓄⓃ ⓀⓁⒾⓃⒺFebruary 24, 2013Get a Metro Tap Card for $1 at Pershing Square station, which is visible from the bottom of Angel's Flight. Put $20 on it and ride all #transit in LA for up to a week - plus, Angel's Flight for $0.25!
Didier DorgaSeptember 26, 2015An interesting, hidden part of the city. Walk the stairs then stroll around the plaza on top.
Buford BarnesJuly 5, 2012It puts the "fun" back in "funicular railway." Ride this relic from 1901 built to ease access to the then-residential Bunker Hill from core downtown below. It's now across from Grand Central Market.
The shortest and cheapest railway ride in the world will transport you back in time. For only 25 cents, it's a historic ride that's worth the trip.
Liza CasanovaOctober 16, 2018Only 50 cents with your Tap Card (which you need for the Metro / Subway / Bus); but you don't get the souvenir ticket!
one-way trip is 25 cents (pay at the top of the hill). round-trip is 50 cents and includes a souvenir ticket. a book of 5 one-way tickets is $1.
Jonathan TashimaApril 30, 2012Whenever another L.A. landmark is torn down or demolished, come here and ride Angel's Flight. It will make you feel better. Just awesome.
The StandardNovember 9, 2010LA (See) Old school LA at it's finest and one of the most romantic date spots around. Def worth going for a ride!
If you take it often, get a book of 5 tix for $1 and save a whopping $.05 per ticket (hey, its worth the savings! ;D)- Great way to get back and forth between the office and the Grand Central Market. And it's only a quarter!
- Miss TrafficMarch 6, 2012Welcome to the shortest railway in the world! Fare is 25 cents for Metro riders who show a valid TAP card.
LA PhilMay 3, 2010Staff Tip! Lisa B (PR): Angel's Flight has re-opened! Take a landmark ride on the world's shortest railway to Grand Central Market. (I love the Mexican sweet bread, fried plantains and horchata)
HemangAugust 17, 2011Love taking this historic engineering transportation in LA. Enjoy the goats before they are gone!- One of the coolest things you can experience in LA for 25 cents.
Claudia LJanuary 1, 2011I was born and raised in la and never knew this was here. Pretty awesome landmark!!- The fare is .50 (one way) But with an active Tap Card, it's .25.
Danielle NeufeldMarch 31, 2012Well, it's definitely worth the money if that's what you are worried about.
AD NysDecember 31, 2009Guy say it could re-open in January 2010 - no word on if it will still cost $.25
