Surprisingly cool, even on hot days. The gardens are one of the best parts. On very clear days, you can walk on the balconies around the building and get views all the way to the ocean.

Who knew? Wow, the Getty Center is world class. If you like world class art, you must go! Little Boy Blue suprised me. The painting I had only seen in textbooks was prominently in display. Fabulous.

It is one of a kind, amazing museums containing beautiful art exhibits from different parts of the world, and the buildings have a really nice design which makes them an art piece on their own. The mesmerizing garden is truly overwhelming, and when you hear the story about how it was designed you will be even more amazed, so make sure to catch the tour. The Getty sits on a high hill, and it has a breathtaking view over Los Angeles. You can enjoy all of that for free and reasonable parking fees. It is an experience unlike any other, truly a hidden gem, very highly recommend it, don’t miss it and make sure you have enough time to see all of the museums, wander around in the garden and enjoy the view.…

I came here 10 years ago but visited again all is still overwhelming. It's a such beautiful museum and you can take uber to there (shuttle tram platform), and you can also call uber back to LA, it's quite convenient. Once you reach this museum, you need to take the the tram to go up the museum, it's quite interesting and exciting design to approach the museum. The museum campus is so pretty, the building, the whole design of the campus, really can give you the refreshed feeling, and feel relax. The whole area is quite big and if you would like to have reviewed and enjoyed more details, you need to reserve more time even around 4 hours. The restaurant staff is very impolite to give the feedback and ruin this great museum's image. All is good but do not recommend for the restaurant.…

This is a one-of-a-kind museum, full of world-class art, beautiful gardens, and cool modern architecture. The museum is free with a reasonable parking fee, so carpool with friends. I would recommend researching what you want to see while you’re there ahead of time, as it is truly overwhelming and there is so much to do. A variety of free group tours are offered throughout the day, all of which sounded so interesting. I always love doing audio guides, and this one was no exception. This is really a gem of Los Angeles.…
