Went on a Sunday on a holiday weekend, and I was surprised that the most crowded/annoying part of the experience was parking ($15 flat rate after the first hour). Even the parking situation wasn t that bad as the museum staff does a good job directing traffic.

We walked up to the museum grounds from the parking garage which took about 15 minutes. The other option is a free tram. Long lines for the tram didn t actually mean a long wait. The people who arrived with us and chose the line instead of walking actually arrived at the museum entrance just before we did.

Once you re at the museum (entrance is free), there are a few different buildings with the typical museum art, artifacts, and rotating exhibits you ll find at most museums. (I m not a big fan of museums in general.)

My favorite part of the visit was absolutely the views of LA and well-groomed grounds surrounding the museums. I didn t try the food.

I d totally recommend going here for a quality experience. I didn t give it 5 stars because I don t think it s a place I would want to revisit often. It s gorgeous, but it s not super unique.
