Griffith Observatory! A Must-Visit Spot in LA You Can't Miss! ππ π
πGriffith Observatory π π It's one of the filming locations for the movie "La La Land," and the Los Angeles night view from the observatory truly captures the essence of the song "City of Stars" πΆ π No matter when you visit, this place is breathtaking. The white main building paired with LA's ever-changing skies and the entire city as a backdrop is simply stunning! If you come in the afternoon, you'll witness the sky transforming from a vibrant blue to a fiery red at sunset, and then to the twinkling lights of the city at night. Each moment offers a unique kind of beauty! β οΈ Now, let's talk about some tips: 1οΈβ£ Check the timing: Generally, after 5 PM is sunset time. You can check Baidu in advance and calculate your arrival time. Traffic in LA can be a nightmare, so plan accordingly and arrive early because it gets super crowded. 2οΈβ£ Be precise with your destination: The area is divided into parking lots, parks, etc. The observatory has its own independent parking lot at the top of the hill. If you come in the evening, it'll be packed, and parking spots will be scarce. Consider finding street parking along the way up the hill and hiking up ππ»ββοΈ. Both the hilltop parking lot and street parking along the way cost π²10/hour. Alternatively, you can park near The Greek Theatre and take a shuttle. 3οΈβ£ Poor signal on the mountain: You might struggle to call for other rides, so arrange your transportation in advance. 4οΈβ£ While you're there for photos, don't forget to check out the planetarium shows and learn some astronomy knowledge π [Images sourced from the internet.
