Imperial/Wilmington
A bustling gateway in South LA, Imperial/Wilmington blends historic murals with vibrant street food and easy Metro access.
Tourist Information
Step off the train and wander just blocks away to the iconic Watts Towers, a 17‑tower folk art masterpiece, then explore the nearby Watts Labor Community Center’s rotating art exhibits. A short stroll leads to the historic Wilmington neighborhood, where you can tour the historic USS *Red Car* museum ship at the Port of Los Angeles and savor authentic Mexican tacos at El Taco Loco on Wilmington Avenue. The station’s colorful murals, created by local artists, provide perfect photo backdrops, while nearby Greenway Park offers a quiet spot for a picnic amid native landscaping.
Local Tips
- Buy a TAP card online before arrival to skip the station vending line and get a 10% fare discount for first‑time riders.
- Check the Metro app for real‑time arrivals; trains to downtown run every 6‑8 minutes during peak hours but less frequently on weekends.
- Carry a reusable water bottle—most nearby cafés offer free water refills, and the station’s bike racks make it easy to lock up a bike for a day of exploring.
