Business Description
Griffith Observatory stands as a beacon of astronomical education and a beloved gathering place for Angelenos and visitors alike. Nestled on the southern slope of Mount Hollywood in Griffith Park, this public observatory offers breathtaking views of Los Angeles and is an architectural gem showcasing Art Deco design. Since its opening in 1935, Griffith Observatory has evolved into one of the most visited destinations in southern California, boasting an impressive 67,000 square feet of exhibit space following renovations completed in 2006.
The observatory is dedicated to public astronomy, providing access to exhibits, a planetarium, and powerful telescopes for stargazing. Admission to the building and grounds is completely free, making it an accessible destination for families and individuals curious about the wonders of the universe. Visitors can also engage with interactive displays that explore celestial phenomena and experience the thrill of seeing Mars rocks and scales that calculate weight on other planets.
With convenient access via public transportation, hiking trails, and a parking lot that accommodates limited visitors, Griffith Observatory continues to attract those eager to learn and enjoy the spectacular panoramic views of the sprawling Los Angeles basin. Whether it's a serene visit under a starry sky or an educational experience during the day, the observatory promises a fulfilling outing for all.
