Travel Guide Griffith Park

A few minutes drive from the city, you can find it in nature. In the same northern Hollywood area, this multi-faceted park is not an ordinary place. You can visit the observatory, the planetarium, the zoo, make very long walks and especially horse riding. Indeed, just a few minutes from the city by car, you are in the middle of nature. The observatory, located next to the famous Hollywood Sign, inscribed on the hills, is particularly easy to locate. It includes the Hall of Science, the planetarium, the laserium. Perspectives on the current and future exploration of the solar system, and those, historical, on astronomy in the time of pharaohs, is what is proposed, among other things, the planetarium. With laser concerts and music of the laserium, you may want a outdoor concert at the Greek Theater in the same park. Then wait on the lawns until the dark night, so that you can study the sky with the observatorium. In the park, a giant bust of James Tead overlooks the city, in homage to the film Rebel Without a Cause filmed here in 1955.
