Nestled high above the Los Angeles skyline you will find Griffith Park. This beautiful natures wonder will bring you beautiful sunsets, marvelous views of the city, laser light shows to popular music and an opportunity to see Saturn up close and personal. And if the observatory looks familiar , maybe it is because you saw it in Rebel without a Cause? Leave a Comment Other Contact:

I would start out by going to the Griffith Observatory , at Griffith Park. You get a beautiful view of the entire area (if not smoggy) and a shot of the Hollywood sign. This is also a great place to start hikes, if interested.
If you want CHEESY - then definately go to Hollywood Boulevard for the Walk of Fame, Mann's Chinese theater and LOTS of tacky souveneirs Leave a Comment

Griffith Park is HUGE! Over 4,000 acres of picnic area, hiking, zoo, equestrian center, the Observatory, pony rides, Merry-go-round, bicycle rental, etc.

My sister lived just a few minutes from Griffith Park, so we decided to walk. We had to walk uphill and so the trek was a bit strenous on foot but worth it.

The Griffith Park Observatory finally reopened! And with the free shuttle from Hollywood and Highland (there's a subway stop), this is really one of those must see local sights. This is one of the few true monuments in LA, and it is fantastic. Going at sunset is a sight to behold. Plenty of hiking in the area, and the renovated planetarium and museum is awesome.

 Hollywood sign by Carmela71
The park seems very busy, but we did not had time to explore it :( The summer of 2004, the observatory and the car park was under renovations so it was difficult to park and we could not see the observatory

 Galileo Galilei, meet
Johannes Kepler... by PartyRambo
I went during the day, but at night it must be brilliant with lights.
Here the observatory probably sees very little of the cosmos, what with the smog you can slice with a knife & take home in a doggie bag, but still, it's a well known landmark, and one of the best locations from which to see the famous Hollywood Sign.
