Topanga
Los Angeles canyon
Topanga is a canyon and community in the Santa Monica Mountains of Los Angeles County, California, known for its bohemian character, natural beauty, and proximity to both mountains and ocean.
The name comes from a Tongva word.
In popular culture, Topanga is strongly associated with the character Topanga Lawrence from the television series *Boy Meets World*, making it a recognizable name beyond its geographic origins.
We hiked through Topanga State Park last weekend.
