The Getty Center

I have made several trips to The Getty Center in Brentwood, CA, which is a neighborhood located in Los Angeles.  My husband used to work at The Getty Villa in Pacific Palisades, CA, until it closed and then he worked at The Getty Center.  The $1.3 billion Center opened to the public on December 16, 1997, and is well known for its architecture, gardens and views overlooking Los Angeles.  The Getty Center is on top of a hill and is connected to the visitors' parking garage at the bottom of the hill by a funicular.  The Getty Villa has reopened and is a beautiful place to visit.

The Getty Center is open Tuesday-Friday and Sunday from 10:00 a.m.-5:30 p.m. and on Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 9 p.m.  The cost is $15 per car.

Enjoy the pictures from this trip in June, 2013
