The Getty Center

Great museum, staff, well, not so much. Creepy staff, Milo Vargas, told us not to get so close to the exhibit, but we were behind the clearly marked perimeters, then proceeded to keep staring at us.
Others were standing close if not closer to the exhibit but they were not chastised.

To expand a bit on my 2012 review, the Impressionist collection is a highly for me. The gardens are terrific and relaxing. And the restaurant is one of the best in LA.

For a flat parking fee of $ 15, you can spend a whole day at The Getty. The facility is gigantic and houses so many different collections you’re certain to find at least one thing to enjoy. I went crazy for the clocks in «The Life of Art: Context, Collecting, and Display» and the maps in the «Traversing the Globe through Illuminated Manuscripts». My friend was drawn toward photography in «Robert Mapplethorpe: The Perfect Medium».
We were finishing up a road trip, so we left after we saw the exhibits we were most interested in, but the gardens looked amazing — wish we had stayed for a little longer to explore and would recommend those who have the time to do so!

$ 15 parking, but $ 10 after 5. No admission costs. Headsets for art guides were complimentary and only required one person in the group to leave an ID as collateral for use.
The tram wait is only 5 minutes at most and travels back and forth constantly. The volunteer staff at the visitors center are very friendly, more so than the staff actually being paid to monitor the rooms. I brought my own bottle of water and the only time I was addressed was to be told not to have beverages in the rooms (mind you, I had the bottle closed the whole time), but the kids being loud and rushing from room to room wasn’t a concern? Friendly hired staff could be improved and will be my only reason for giving this rating 4 out of 5.
Loved seeing the exhibits and they continually update, so definitely worth the return.
There are areas to grab a quick bite, but I bring my own snacks/​bottled water with me.
Will be back

$ 15 can get you access to the whole museum, even the visiting exhibits. If you come here a lot and can manage to see what you want within an hr, parking is free! If there’s 3 of u or more and can fit in 1 car, this price is unbeatable!
The volunteers are so nice and we saw the dunhuang caves which was pretty interesting. The 3d video made me a little dizzy when the camera moved. The cave imitation was pretty spot on and you got the gist of the actual caves. Unfortunately my cousins were not into the whole museum thing and they wanted to go before the parking limit was up.
If you live in LA and you like museums, then this is an awesome playground for your artsy interests! Come with a group so you don’t have to pay the whole 15 bucks lol.

Price is right (free — other than parking) and the view is spectacular. Even if art is not really your thing, the buildings, grounds, views and gardens are worth the trip.
We took one of the Highlight tours. It focused on a few pieces and provided some in depth information that made the experience more enjoyable.

*** WAH, WAH, WAH, WAH ***
I went to the Getty Center one *WEDNESDAY*, thinking it would be one of the best days to visit the site [for the umpteenth time]. However, my experience during that midweek day was as overwhelming as Disney’s California Adventure on Christmas Day… The underground parking lots were full. There were hordes of visitors from all over the universe. And, there were flocks, if not herds, of young children and teenagers in small groups, medium groups, large groups and XXL groups… [Old Man in shaky voice says, «Damn whippersnappers! When I was a kid, my grade school field trips included places like, a dairy or an historic ranch in Rancho Cucamonga… And, I walked home from school every day — in the snow!”].
I didn’t mind so much that, before boarding the tram, everyone was subjected to inspection by a friendly, TSA-​like agent — I’m all for safety precautions in this day and age… What really annoyed me was, I couldn’t cozy up to some of my favorite works of art or listen to my own thoughts amidst the Getty Center’s amazing architecture and gardens… It was really quite difficult to «be in the moment» when gangs of aficionados and non-​aficionados spoke loudly and/​or giggled as if they had walked over a funhouse blowing machine [I should have brought my earplugs].
Upon my departure in the midafternoon, the hordes, flocks, herds and gangs had waned. Maybe it’s best to arrive after 2 p.m., perhaps? One Getty Center staff recommended Tuesdays as the best day to visit…
What sound does a sad trombone make when something fails? [Wah, wah, wah, wah]:

This is a world class museum set on top of the Santa Monica Mountains in Brentwood. Built at a cost of 1.3 billion dollars this is a spectacular complex of buildings designed by the world famous architect Richard Meier. There is also a very nice garden tucked between buildings and various outdoor balconies and patios offering panoramic views.
There are numerous galleries housing art from various periods. It not possible to see it all in a day, so be prepared to come back.
I came to see the Dunhuang caves exhibit. Absolutely spectacular. The tickets are timed so arrive early to get them. There is a 3D presentation of one of the caves and then 3 other caves are presented as replicas of the original caves. All of this wonder is free, except for parking, which is $ 15 or take the bus to the Getty if you don’t feel like paying the $ 15.

We’ve been coming to visit The Getty since its opening in the late 90’s. The Getty is truly an architectural wonder by architect Richard Meier and awesome engineering feat. Whenever we’ve visited the museum, we are continually excited by the building itself and the grand views from its mountain perch.
This time, we came up to see the touring exhibits of the Cave Temples of Dunhuang: Buddhist Art on China’s Silk Road, Samuel J. Wagstaff’s photography collection and the «controversial» yet beautiful photography by Robert Mapplethorpe. We also took our time to roam into rooms filled with classic art by Master artists Auguste Rodin, Rembrandt, Édouard Manet, Eugene Delacroix and Vincent Van Gogh. The experience of walking about the Master works and Buddhist art taken from the Dunhuang Temples was enthralling.
There is no admission fee to see these great pieces. Although, you should know that you can take the Metro up here or if you drive your vehicle, it’ll cost you $ 15 to park. You should plan on spending at least 2 hours or more up here. The complete experience from the architecture of this museum and its grounds, glimpsing research and restoration techniques and being up close to classical art from Grand Masters from Eastern and Western Civilization is breathtaking!

Alana and Annee went with me in October 2015 to this Top Ten Visitor Attraction in Los Angeles.
Because of the drought, the water fountains and ponds were dry, but we were able to imagine them flowing and filled with grandeur. .
For just a $ 15 parking fee (pay at the automated machines), we took the tram to the Center and viewed masterpieces for hours. We hurried along because we wanted to have lunch before heading onto the Getty Villa where you can park for free on the same day.
The best thing for me is seeing man made artwork contrasted with the natural beauty of the views of Los Angeles. Yes, buildings are man made, too, but there are trees and gardens in between. .and you can see the ocean in the distance. .
The Gift Shop was another highlight because you can get a great souvenir there or pick up a special present for someone! (I got something useful!)
I visited the Getty Center again in May 2016 with Craig, Yuri, Natasha, and Alana. It’s still a fabulous place with four wings and a garden. Again, we ran out of time and didn’t get to see everything. Plus, there was a special exhibit called «Cave Temples of Dunhuang: Buddhist Art on China’s Silk Road». This is a replica of caves that were found with cool artwork on the walls. Go now and see it before it leaves on September 4, 2016! Admission is free — just get a ticket at the front door of the Getty Center! Enjoy!

First off, I don’t like art, but I can appreciate the effort and variety that the Getty offers. It has lots of various paintings and artifacts from all parts of the world and at different time points in history.
I do enjoy history and I believe that is a major draw for even the most simple person. History is fascinating and seeing artifacts that are in a direct eyeshot of a camera or the naked eye is much appreciated.
This place has beautiful buildings and lots of attention to detail. The architects that spent years designing had their hard work pay off.
If you want to get exercise, you most definitely will by walking this place. The vast amount of space it takes up helps you get your steps in.
There is agre at restaurant here. I didn’t eat in it but I know plenty who have and really enjoyed it.
The views are also amazing. It sits on a large hill that overlooks LA and the Pacific Ocean. When the sun is out its a great place that can be enjoyed outside as well.
I would recommend that if you are in the area, take a few hours and come. Although you will probably spend more time and not even know it.

Ok living in So Cal you figured to visit here at least once or twice well for me living in So Cal my whole life this is my first trip here. We came here after visiting the Getty Villa and finding out parking would be free with our parking receipt from the Getty Villa if you visit on the same day. I say that’s a great deal you just need to plan out your time. We basically had one hour and half here before closing time. We were able to see a lot but not everything this is big place. It’s very nice art and decorations are beautiful. There are some areas where you cut take photos or videos they are the blue walls. There are a lot of different pavilions and buildings you would definitely need a few hours. I am impressed and will have to come back to see the rest of the stuff we didn’t see.

I’ve been here on several occasions. I always bring people from out of town that are visiting here. This place is just simply amazing whether you like art/​museums/​paintings or not. First of all, admission is FREE. You do have to pay for parking but its $ 15 which is pretty cheap if you come with a full car and split it! Come here to walk around, enjoy a nice day, have a picnic or to take some good Instagram photos. Art lovers will definitely enjoy the sculptures and paintings. If you are like me, you will enjoy the garden and just sitting and relaxing outdoor on the almost always sunny SoCal weather.

Best tip: Wear comfortable shoes. I think that MAYBE I could have covered the whole place had I been more shoe-​savvy.
So, yes, the place is huge. Your visit begins with a tram ride, reminiscent of Disney World, and the tram goes up, up, up, offering the first of many incredible views of LA. Your out-​of-​state guests will be wow’ed already.
If you can, check out the restaurant. Another great view, whether you choose to sit indoors or out. And the prices are not bad at all. The food is not Top Chef, but I thought it was quite good. Plus, after all the walking, the chance to sit, relax and be waited on was a treat. I felt pampered.

Gorgeous museum and grounds! Great way to spend an afternoon.
Museum is free but you pay $ 15 for parking ($ 10 after 4PM) in a covered garage. Once you park you take a 5 min tram ride to the center.
People brought blankets and snacks to eat for the grass area outside. They do have a café outside as well to buy food from.
Great views outside and gorgeous interior and artwork. Very clean and well taken care of. Grab a map because there is a lot to explore. Unfortunately with the drought the garden area isn’t looking as fabulous as some of the pictures on Unilocal,but it’s still really nice.

The Getty Center is a very impressive museum with breathtaking views. Came here a few weekends ago, after a long hiatus from this place. I hadn’t been here in over 10 years, so I figured it’d be cool to re-​explore. Needless to say, I was not disappointed.
Parking has apparently gone up here, as we were charged $ 15. That’s the only cost you’ll incur during your visit, unless you choose to buy food or souvenirs from the gift shop, as entrance to the museum itself is free. Once parked, proceed to the tram, which will take you up to the museum, and is the only way to get there.
The Art: Lots of old European and religious art. While that isn’t really my thing, it was at least interesting to look at. One of my favorite rooms here was the one that contained art pieces by Monet and Van Gogh’s irises. Those pieces are truly beautiful and make the whole trip worth it.
I also enjoyed looking at some of the various rooms containing old, ancient books. I find it so interesting how the old books were written by hand, with such beautiful hand writing and detail. Old books are so carefully/​intricately made, and are equally impressive pieces of art itself.
The architecture, location, ambiance, and views here are amongst the best in all of Los Angeles. The buildings are grand, and the overall feel of this place is very sophisticated and elegant. I think I recall reading that this museum took a whopping $ 1.3 billion to construct, and I believe it. The real estate is truly impressive. On the day we went, we could see anywhere from downtown, all the way to the beach/​Santa Monica. It was an all around epic experience and I’m happy I decided to give this place another try after such a long time.
I highly recommend this museum to all. Even if you aren’t an art person, I think there is something for everyone to appreciate, whether it be the views or the architecture. I will be back.

This is not only a beautiful and amazing museum with wonderful installations, but also a great space to spend an afternoon. The space is large and sprawling with some of the best views of the city. We often go with a picnic and hang out on the lawn… sometimes we don’t even go into the museum!
The art and space is free, parking is bout $ 15 I believe.
Plan a good amount of time for parking as you have to wait for the tram or walk up the long hill to the center.
The food there is mediocre, I suggest bringing your own.
They also do awesome summer concerts, all free, that are great!

Located somewhere in Pasadena. I came here with my sister and my niece on a Saturday morning around ¹⁰⁄₁₁ so traffic parking wasnt too bad. There was already a sign posted that advertised $ 15 parking. Going in, there were several floors of parking. Do remember to take a picture of what floor you are on because when you finish touring the Getty Center, you are going to be a lil bit confused as they all look the same. Some parking spaces required the front of the car to be parked in — so you would see the yellow signs that tell you to do so. Hopping on the elevator up there was a long line waiting for the tram up.
Advice to all those who don’t mind a walk — take the walk. It really is not that bad, and you get to breathe in some fresh air. It is slightly uphill and you get some exercise in. You do get your bag checked at security to make sure you are not bringing food or drinks in. When you reach the Getty Center after a 15 min walk, you see a statue and something that looks like a metallic globe. They have small food places located here and there, but I prefer the Café. Honestly that was my favorite museum food place and that’s saying something about museums. Museum food usually does not taste very good and does not have good presentation but Café was different.
As we had my adorable baby niece (as you see in my current profile pic) we were limited to going specific areas as we had a stroller. Thankfully many of the floors had elevator so we could still stroll through and admire the paintings and learn a bit more about the history. Baby A slept for majority of the time but otherwise was more interested in the milk bottle than the paintings.
There were so many places where you could admire the landscape too as well as quite the place to take iconic and silly pictures. Would totally go again! And remember where we parked next time instead of going on each floor trying to see if the car is parked on the level we were on.

Griffith Observatory and Hollywood are always the top LA attractions that many know, but the Getty Center should be on the top as well! Even if you aren’t a museum person, the architecture itself is an impressive fest to behold and the garden is beautiful to admire. Of course it’s even better if you are a museum person: as impressive as the architecture, the collection is a heavyset European arts collection ranging from the Hellenistic period to contemporary as well as masterpieces from other art cultures.
You may need at least a half-​day to explore the multiple floors of the many buildings in this out-​of-​the-​world museum complex, but be sure to pick a beautiful day so you can take a break from art to see the beautifully curated garden and the high vantage of the LA skyline!
Bring your own food though. At least with the Saturday-​only Garden Terrance Café, the food is overpriced and mediocre.
Anyway, the whole museum itself is free! However, parking is $ 15 and public transportation is unreliable. You have to ride the tram uphill from the parking garage but if you don’t want to wait in line, you can take a 10-​minute walk to the museum. Go early, because this place gets crowded later in the day!
Bottom line is that this is a must-​go destination in Los Angeles! You can’t miss this impressive sight inside and outside the architecture!

tl;dr version:
1) Impressive buildings with beautiful garden
2) Wide variety of European antique and artworks
3) Free admission, but $ 15 parking
4) Bring your own food

If you have time to visit only one Museum during your stay in Los Angeles, the Getty Center would be the place I recommend. You can easily spend half a day enjoying the view, artwork, architecture, and gardens. The Getty Center sits on a hill overlooking the city of Angles.
Parking is $ 15; $ 10 after 4pm. Pay stations are available on the arrival plaza. Cash and credit cards are accepted only at the arrival plaza, p1, and p2. All other stations only take credit cards. On the weekend that I visited, there was ample parking. After parking your car, you take a 5 minute tram ride from the lower station to the summit.
Admission to the center is FREE! Yes free because the J. Paul Getty Trust donated this museum as part of his philanthropy for others to enjoy. The museum is closed on Mondays and open the rest of the week.
The museum has strict bag rules. Large backpacks, bags, and purses need to be checked in the coat parcel area.
Take the guided tour, which is offered daily. For additional details and times check in at the Gallery Tours Meeting Place. Lastly, grab a map to help you navigate around. Enjoy!!!

Ce lieu est simplement magnifique !
1 Les expositions permanentes de peinture européennes, de sculptures, de photographies ou les exhibitions temporaires sont de qualité et d’une grande richesse
2 L’architecture des bâtiments et jardins d’une exceptionnelle beauté
3 La vue exceptionnelle sur LA
4 Musée gratuit (enfin presque car parking obligatoire payant, mais quand même)
5 La montée en petit train pour arriver en haut de la colline de Brentwood offre un panorama très sympa et surtout préserve le site et les espaces arborés très présents de tout engin motorisé donc on est au calme en haut.
6 La luminosité particulière, entre les ouvertures dans les bâtiments, l’espacement entre eux, les portes vitrées, la pierre blanche, les reflets sur l’acier…

Né loupez pas la visite du getty center si vous venez à los Angeles… tout d’abord pour profiter d’une vue magnifique sur la ville, mais surtout pour la richesse des oeuvres que getty avait amassé dans sa vie et qui sont exposées gratuitement (seul le parking est payant 15 $) dans des bâtiments modernes et superbes. Un petit train sympathique relie le parking au centre.

Un de mes gros coups de cœur made in Los Angeles !
Le Getty Center est un lieu assez époustouflant, auquel on accède en tramway, après avoir laissé sa voiture en bas, au parking. Parking qui est payant (15 €) mais le musée, lui, est entièrement gratuit !
C’est assez impressionnant, dès que l’on arrive en bas du grand escalier: le Getty Center resplendit sous le soleil. Ses nombreux bâtiments, blancs, parfois vitrés, parfois en pierre, jouent avec les reflets et le ciel bleu californien. On en prend vraiment plein les yeux tant les perspectives sont fascinantes.
Et le Getty Center sait nous surprendre, avec ses terrasses et leurs points de vue, d’un côté sur les montagnes, de l’autre sur les gratte-​ciels de LA… avec ses jardins, aussi, l’un à la Française, l’autre dédié à des cactus gigantesques… Waouh !
Vous réalisez, au bout de 2 heures passées ici que vous n’avez toujours pas mis les pieds à l’intérieur du musée !
A noter pour ceux qui né tiennent pas particulièrement aux sculptures antiques et aux scènes bibliques que le Getty Center vaut absolument le détour, né serait-​ce que pour ses jardins, où vous passerez une merveilleuse après-​midi… (l’herbe y est très confortable pour entamer une petite sieste…).
A né pas manquer, enfin, le coucher du soleil, qui couvre les bâtiments d’une lumière dorée… a kind of magic !

Le plus beau musée, et de très loin, de Los Angeles.
Tout y est absolument fantastique. Le bâtiment est ultra moderne. Les collections permanentes sont extrêmement riches et il y en a pour tous les goûts. Les jardins sont magnifiques et la vue sur Los Angeles est magique, dans mon top 2 des vues sur la ville (en concurrence directe avec la vue de l’Observatoire Griffith).
Le tout pour la somme misérable de… 0 dollars. Bön j’exagère, il vous faudra payer le parking (une quinzaine de dollars), le reste est gratuit. Prévoyez 2 bonnes heures minimum sur place.

Das Getty Center verbindet in meinen Augen architektonische Baukunst, mit Esthetik, einer exponierten Lage in den Santa Monica Hills über L. A, mit Gartenkunst, Pracht und beeindruckenden Exponaten sowohl in Dauer, wie auch in Wechselausstellung. Must see in meinen Augen.

Es war für mich schon sehr überraschend ein solch beeindruckendes Museum oder besser gesagt Ausstellungsgelände mit wunderschönen Parkanlagen gratis besuchen zu können. Kein Eintritt, war für mich nicht zu fassen und einen wahnsinns Ausblick auf LA

Das beste Museum in LA und vermutlich der gesamten West Coast. Das Gebäude wurde von Richard Meier entworfen und die Landschaft wurde von Lauri Olin und Robert Irwin geplant, teilweise in Zusammenarbeit mit Meier. Das allein ist schon einen Besuch wert. Die Aussicht runter auf Hollywood ist fantastisch und die Kunstsammlung im Museum sehenswert. Dazu ist der Eintritt in das Museum auch noch kostenlos.
Man kann viele entspannende Stunden in den Parks oder im Museum verbringen, eine willkommene Abwechslung zum Highlife in Los Angeles.

Énorme place a visiter. Magique jardin et a visiter quand les arbres sont en fleur.
Le point de vue est unique sur la ville que l’on devine dans la brume du pacifique

Einfach Großartig! Nicht nur das Museum und die Kunst, sondern auch der Blick auf die Stadt. Architektur und location sind ein MUST SEE. Ich verbringe oft einige Stunden mit dem Fernglas dort…

Das Getty center liegt auf einem Hügel sehr Nahe von Los Angeles, deshalb hat man einen wunderschönen Blick über die Stadt der Engel.
Aber das ist nicht das einzige was das Getty Center zu bieten hat.
Der Eintritt ist frei lediglich das Parken kostet 10USD. Nach dem parken geht es dann mit einer Bahn hoch zum Getty Center wo man dann allerlei Kunst zu sehen bekommt. Das Center ist sehr schön aufgeteilt und man findet alles ganz gut, falls das doch nicht klappt steht reichlich Personal in der Nähe das gerne und freundlich weiterhilft.
Neben der Kunstaustellung hat das Getty Center auch noch eine wunderschöné Parkanlage und wunderschöné Architektur die sehr sehenswert ist.
Wenn man plant das Getty Center zu besichtigen sollte man gut Zeit einplanen denn hier braucht man doch so einige Zeit um alles anzuschauen und mitzunehmen. Außerdem unbedingt eine Kamera dabeihaben um von der schönen Aussicht ein Bild zu machen!

Das Bauwerk, schon von weitem sichtbar an der I-​405, findet bei verschiedensten Zielgruppen großen Anklang. Kunstfreunde, Architekturfans, Touristen und ganz normale Angelenos kommen hier her. Die Kunst wird von manchen Besuchern eher beiläufig bestaunt. Der Ort ist es: Die Aussicht bis zum Pazifik, die Stille hoch über Los Angeles und vor allen Dingen die grandiose Architektur.
Richard Meier hat hier ein unglaublich ästhetisches und zugleich weitläufiges Museum geschaffen. Geparkt wird unten in der Tiefgarage und dann fahren alle Besucher mit der Bahn hinauf. Oben sind verschiedene Gebäude und herrliche Außenanlagen mit Gärten und Gastronomie zu einem Gesamtwerk zusammen gesetzt.
Man sollte einige Stunden, vielleicht bis zum Sonnenuntergang, hier im Getty Center verbringen. Die Zeit vergeht wie im Fluge, und ganz nebenbei kann man die Sammlung J. Paul Gettys und aktuelle Ausstellungen bewundern. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Wow. Wahnsinnsblick über die Stadt. Man kann prima im Park sitzen und Wein trinken und den Abend geniessen.

Sehr schönes und modernes Museum. Der Eintritt ist kostenlos. Der Parkplatz kostet 10 USD. Man fährt dann mit einer Bahn auf den Hügel zum Museum. Wer sich für Kunst interessiert hat einiges zu sehen. Wer einfach mal entspannen möchte nimmt am besten eine Decke mit und legt sich auf die Wiese. Man hat eine super Aussicht auf Downtown L.A. und auf die Villen von Bel Air und Beverly Hills. D

Das Getty Center. Ein Begriff der ein kulturinteressierter sehr gern hört. Genau wie ich. Die 8 $ fürs Parken sind durchaus berechtigt, da der Aufenthalt kostenlos ist.
Allein die 10 min. Auffahrt hat schon viel relaxte Atmosphäre. Oben angekommen, stellt man fest das der gesamte Komplex aus hochwertigem Marmor besteht.
Am besten ist ein besuch bei Sonnenschein, (was in L.A. nicht unbedingt schwer sein sollte) da sich die Möglichkeit bietet auf der grossen aber auch einer kleineren Terasse platz zu nehmen.
Ein überdachtes Lokal ist auch vorhanden.
Bezüglich der ausgestellten Exponate, bei etlichen stand ich wirklich lange Zeit davor, um die zahlreichen Facetten dieser Prachtstücke aufzunehmen. Es gehören dazu Gemälde, Büsten, Schlafgemächer, Komoden sowie weitere edles Interieur.
Ein recht apartes Gemälde war zb. Venus & Adonis.
Es zeigt eine flehende Venus die Adonis abhalten will, zu der Jagd aufzubrechen, auf der er dann sterben sollte.
Auch ein Schrank der an die Siege des französischen Königs Ludwig XIV. erinnert waren recht eindrucksvoll.
Das gesamte Flair dieses Museums einschliesslich Garten erweckte in mir eine Aura des Wohlfühlens. Das wird zu gewisser Zeit gekrönt von traumhaften Sundowns sowie den Lichtern der Stadt.
Somit empfehle ich diesen Ort wärmstens. 100*e Bitte.

Das Getty Center ist eines der angenehmsten und abwechslungsreichsten Museen, die ich bislang besucht habe. Seine Besichtigung füllt locker einen halben Tag aus. Sehr abwechslungsreich waren bei meinem Besuch 2007 die Ausstellungen. Im Außenbereich kann man wunderbar entspannen, Architektur und Pflanzen sowie ein beeindruckendes Panorama über Teile der Stadt genießen. Tatsächlich kostet nur das Parken zehn Dollar. Familienfreundlicher und kurzweiliger kann ein Museum kaum sein.

Superbe musée sur les collines d’Hollywood. Idéal pour avoir une belle vue sur Los Angeles et le Pacifique.
L’accès n’est pas très évident, même avec un GPS, le chemin est un peu compliqué. Le musée est gratuit mais le parking payant (environ 8 à 10 $). Pour les amateurs d’art, les collections permanentes sont riches, les expositions itinérantes toujours pertinentes, l’architecture très contemporaine et les petits jardins sont vraiment superbes.

Auf einem Huegel gelegenes exellentes Museum mit zum Teil wechselnden Ausstellungen. Es wird kein Eintritt verlangt, lediglich die 10 USD Parking sind zu entrichten.
Im Sommer auf jeden Fall die fruehen Morgenstunden waehlen, da es dort oben heiss wird.
Ferner bietet das Museum eine interessante Architektur und einen schoenen Garten. Ausserdem ist der Blick von dort oben auf den Interstate 405 und die Stadt auch recht nett.
Essen und Getraenke im Restaurant sind preislich und qualitativ absolut okay.
