EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the serene beauty of The Pelican, a historic landmark located in West Lake Park in Los Angeles, California, USA. The Pelican, a large, elegant structure designed to resemble a pelican with its wings outstretched, has been a beloved feature of the park since the early 20th century. Surrounded by lush greenery and tranquil water, the pelican stands proudly near the edge of the park's picturesque lake. In the background, a waterfall cascades down into the pool below, creating a soothing ambiance that draws visitors in. The pelican has long been a symbol of generosity and nurturing, making it a fitting centerpiece for this peaceful retreat. West Lake Park, established in 1925, was once a popular destination for Angelenos seeking respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. The park's picturesque lake, fed by natural springs, offered a refreshing escape from the desert heat. The Pelican, with its iconic design, became a beloved symbol of the park and the city itself. This photograph, taken in the 20th century, captures a moment in time when the park was at the height of its popularity. The pelican stands as a testament to the enduring charm of West Lake Park and the rich history of Los Angeles. Today, the park and its iconic pelican continue to draw visitors from around the world, offering a glimpse into the past while providing a peaceful retreat in the heart of the city.
