Everyone knows that NBA legend and retired Los Angeles star Kobe Bryant died unexpectedly in an accident a while ago, which shocked the whole world, including me of course. I think Kobe’s Mamba Mentality is respectable, and this song is truly worthy of this spirit, so I chose it, hoping that Kobe’s spirit can always inspire us to keep moving forward.

This issue is the final chapter of this series. It is called the "City of Angels" and is also the home city of Kobe's team-Los Angeles.

Chinatown

Almost every foreign city has a Chinatown. As the name suggests, it is a small business district built for Chinese people. In fact, it may not necessarily be said that it has special features, but almost everyone will choose to take a walk and have a look.

When I first came to Chinatown, I met a film crew filming a scene. It seemed that I was really lucky.

Avenue of Stars

As a cultural and historical landmark in Hollywood, the Walk of Fame includes more than 2,500 five-pointed terrazzo and brass "stars" embedded in the sidewalks along 15 blocks of "Hollywood Boulevard" and 3 blocks of "Vine Street" superior. "Stars" represent a lasting memorial to those who have made outstanding achievements in the entertainment industry, recording the names of actors, musicians, directors, producers, musical groups, theater groups, fictional characters and others. The Walk of Fame is maintained by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and the self-funded Hollywood Historic Trust.

The excerpt I took here captures the star of Michael Jackson, as well as the imprints of Stan Lee, the father of Marvel, Zhao Wei, and Huang Xiaoming. Of course, there is also a photo of me and the wax figure of my idol Kobe.
