After all, this glamorous city became Hollywood’s playground thanks to its easy distance from Los Angeles. Sail up I-10 while enjoying views of the sprawling desert landscape. If you’re coming from the north or south, I-15 and California State Road 79/74 and 247/62 make the drive seamless. For those flying, Palm Springs International Airport (PSP) is only minutes from downtown, with non-stop flights from numerous major cities.
