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.

Quite a nice-looking building architecturally, here's the view as you walk/drive up from the gate, after a long, winding roadway through miles of park.

The landmark Observatory (Tues–Fri 2–10pm, Sat & Sun 12.30–10pm; free) here has been seen in innumerable Hollywood films. It is also a great place to view the skyline of down town Los Angeles.
