This Must Be is a neighborhood guide series published by the L.A. Times that features a close look at one of the many unique areas of Los Angeles. The feature includes a list that Times’ writers recommend to really get a feel for the neighborhood, including places to dine, shop, and experience.

On March 12, the Times published “This Must Be: Burbank,” written by Adam Tschorn. The theme of the guide was the city’s rich history, which can be enjoyed through eating a meal at restaurants dating back to the early 1900s or a taking a tour of the famous Warner Brothers Studio.

Trying somewhere new or revisiting somewhere you haven’t been in a while will make you love Burbank even more – and using transit in Burbank can help you see the city in a brand-new way!

Of the 16 places featured in the guide, 13 are accessible by bus and the remaining 3 are within the North Hollywood/Burbank Metro Micro service area.
