The Getty

Address: 1200 Getty Center Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90049, USA

Museum

“I’ve been here twice, both w friends. To get here, you can even search for “Getty Center Parking” on your maps app. Parking costs $25, but it’s $15 after 3:00 PM. Tickets are free but must be reserved in advance. You’re allowed in within one hour of your designated time. Give yourself some time to get to the center; you’ll need to parking in a giant multi-floor garage where spaces are rather small (note the code for your area), and then take an elevator to the security line for the tram. There are bathrooms in this area and it’s open air. You can even see a nice sculpture here. You’re allowed to pack a little picnic and food items, even though there are at least 2 places where they sell food and drink inside. Some people have a little picnic on the greens, near the garden, where the grass lawn is perfect. Then, the tram comes every so often and shows you a great little panoramic view of LA and its hills. It’s very clean and has shaded windows. The main entrance has some stairs. Not sure about accessibility here. Then there are several buildings where you can see the art collections. There are elevators indoors and also map guides in multiple languages, including Spanish and Chinese. There’s also a Getty store when you first get inside. The botanical garden is wonderful / my fave, and the sculpture garden and catcus garden are also great. You could easily spend a day here wandering through everything. There are fountains and pools, and the garden has a little winding labryinth and all kinds of amazing blooms and rest areas. Getty has a villa in a separate location. The Getty Center can also be reached by public transportation. I’ll be back for sure. This is the perfect place to take new visitors to LA.”

San Juan Bautista State Historic Park

“San jaun bautista is a wonderful Historic little Town I visited 10 days ago mainly because of "Alfred Hitchcocks" film Vertigo, I stumbled upon a Spanish/ American Festival with Street foods and many other goods, there was a band playing such a wonderful atmosphere, the people were so happy and welcoming. I spoke with Linda in her little Store "Vintage Curosity" she was very interesting to talk to and informed me where in town I could sleep in my car as I was touring the States on the cheap. Next morning after a piecefull night I went for breakfast at the little dinner with red & white chequered floor the lady was great, wonderful Coffee & tasty toast and marmalade, next I visited "Windmill Market" this was the best little Supermarket I stopped at whilst in the States for 3 weeks highly recommend. I was sad to leave many folk said come back and see us again, fantastic slice of old traditional America i loved it. 👌❤️”

“What a gem! Unbelievably beautiful inside, such an honoring of Woman there and the powerful events offered throughout the year are magnificent. Yes they are situated in a business park however the transformation inside is breathtaking! A must see for locals and travelers. Every pantheon is honored and every season or so a special woman is honored, this month it is the incomparable Josephine Baker. If you are a woman come to experience how sacred you are and if you are not, come to honor woman who has birthed you into being this lifetime!”

My youngest said they felt like Indiana Jones and my eldest said it's their highlight so far of winter vacation.

Such a fun, educational experience!”

Harris Lass House Museum

Address: 1889 Market St, Santa Clara, CA 95050, USA

Museum

“Over 100 years of Santa Clara History The Harris-Lass home belonged to two families in its tenure in Santa Clara. I had the pleasure of touring the home with the President of the Historic Preservation Society of Santa Clara, Bob Byrd. If anyone knows this home, it is Mr. Byrd, whose knowledge of it is nearly as extensive as those who resided in it. The tour through the home takes about 90 minutes, no photography is permitted within the house. Guests are permitted to take as many photos of the grounds as they wish as well as to visit the other buildings. The collection of period materials is one of the most extensive in the valley as the grand-daughter of Captain Lass, left nearly everything she had in the home when she departed. Her parting wish was to have the home preserved for future generations under the governance of the city. Thanks to her generous donation and the work of the preservation society, we may all show our appreciation.”

“Great little stagecoach stop to explore. A wealth of local history for the San Gorgonio Pass. The staff are top notch. If hiking on the trail towards the north, be mindful of some pitbull dogs that the house on top of the hill has. They run loose down the hill side and can be a concern.”
