Japanese American Cultural & Community Center — Attraction in Los Angeles

I recently came to this theater to watch KTown Cowboys as part of the Asian Pacific Film Festival. The theater was a bit hard to find until I got there and realized, I've totally been to this quad before!

The theater's located next to the Japanese Buddhist Temple (exact name escapes me at the moment), and the entrance of the theater faces the quad.

People collecting tickets are right at the door (one entrance), this is pretty much a 1 show/screen large theater of a semi-sphere. There are multiple doors into the theater based on where your seats are located.

I don't drink, I don't smoke cigarettes and I don't do drugs. So, I don't want those types in my personal space. I ain't judging, I'm...

It's a nice little getaway. There are a lot of different and interesting plants to see here. This is an excellent place to take pictures of many different species of plants. You can visit with your family, or a group of people, or even by yourself. This place is a good idea to come to if you need to clear your mind. I highly recommend this place to anyone in the area, or traveling...
