Something fun to do from time to time is to take a look back at the past. Modern times are fun and all and new trends are great, but all of the history in the 1960s is cool too. Things have changed a lot over the past 60 or so years. Everything from music to media to fashion to celebrities and everything in between and beyond has evolved over the years. Nothing has really stayed exactly the same, which is interesting.

The 1960s were a revolutionary time in life. The 1960s were also known as the 'swingin' sixties,' which is a pretty perfect name for the decade. There are tons of films, shows, and a whole lot of music from the 60s that people still enjoy to this day. Lots of these pieces of media are still relevant and still as cool now as they were back then.

So, for those who either want to indulge in some 1960s nostalgia and take a look back on what the old days were like or for anyone who is unfamiliar with the decade and wants to take a peek at what it held, here are 24 throwback photos from the 1960s.
