Barnsdall Arts Reviews

The atmosphere here is the best here!! Great for special needs!! I love it!!

Beautiful views of the city, quiet and peaceful, a hidden sanctuary. So lovely!

Cool spot to hang out and see some art (when museum is open). Great place to take photos as well if you don t mind the occasional onlooker. Beautiful views and close to good food spots all around

The perfect escape (albeit you re in the center of it) from the urban chaos of LA!

Love this gem! Maybe I'm biased, I live nearby. It's a great patch of grass to sit, ponder, and meditate. Views of the Hollywood Hills, Hollywood Sign, Griffith Observatory, and DTLA.

Bit of a hidden gem in LA. Little park on a hill with views of the Hollywood sign and Griffith Observatory. Highly recommend taking a tour of the inside of the Hollyhock House! Also, this park is where the Elvis and Audrey party was filmed for Big Little Lies.

Very nice place to hang and see some of the city skyline

I went by train, but I write in the guidebook that the parking fee is free. Is it a small park category in the United States? The Hollywood sign looked quite far.

It's pretty cool SMALL shopping center, TAKE metro BY AND you're so close to different places

I'm a big Frank Lloyd Wright fan. I think this place is awesome

There is a flight of stairs to go up if you have issues be sure to get directions to the handicap parking area it will save you a lot of unnecessary walking!!!

Nice environment, peacefull feelings under the trees

Nice park to get a bit of inspiration from. The upper park has a great view of the Hollywood sign.

I actually was at the mall nearby, where I went to Jon 's, nice smaller market.

I've come here a couple times for the Barnsdall Foundation's #BarnadallFridays weekly summer wine tasting event, and enjoyed myself both times. The second time, there was an earthquake, and no one gave a care in the world. Great views, vibes, and people!

What a great place for a quiet get together or birthday party. You can't set up tables but just a picnic type gathering works well here. There are clean restrooms and parking and the address comes up on maps so it's easy to get to!

It's beautiful, scenic and designed by my favourite architect Frank Lloyd Wright. It has an art center and is a lovely place to picnic. I love the neighborhood, Los Feliz. The only thing I wish is that the people running it took better care of this historic landmark and kept it cleaner.

Beautiful park centrally located to downtown and Hollywood with surprising panoramic views of the city! I highly recommend checking out the Hollyhock House; an architectural marvel!

Quiet place to read in the middle of the city chaos.

No info that they would not open because it was 90 degrees out. Don't open early. Tacky chain link fence in areas

My children perform all tge time at the Barnsdall. It is a safe place for our children and great plaxe for the veiw with family and friends

It is a pleasant place and above all one can forget about the noise while enjoying being in contact with nature

Just an awesome park. And a great place to see the Hollywood sign and The Observatory.

it is nice to have these places in the neighborhood I have attended some exhibitions and they are truly interesting and makes it more special the beautiful view from different angles of the city

One of the best parks in the Koreatown/Hollywood adjacent neighborhoods. Great views of the hills. Hollyhock house is worth seeing, even if you don't pay the entrance fee. The park never gets too busy, even on weekends you usually find parking (which is free).

Fantastic place to relax away from the hustle and bustle...

MAKING CALIFORNIA UNSAFE AGAIN
I would never take my kids to this cesspool.

Such a great spot to springboard a date night or a while night with friends. We picked up wine and snacks at Jon's Marketplace on the way up. After a few sunset toasts we walked down to The Middle East Club for sidewalk hookah with our new friend George (he owns the place). When our stomachs started to growl we walked over to Carousel to pretend we were the Kardashians and feast on classic mezas. Such a good time!

Good. People sleep for awhile before gates close. Nice front of a hillside that winds into a rec center or school, hell myght be a art gallery in them walls. I just like the roads , trees and grass on every side. Peace away fr streets

Loved Barnsdall park and my dog did too. There's lots of dog friendly trails that aren't too difficult. It's surprising you're still in CA, it's very calming and secluded. The cafe at the front of the park is very quaint and worth stopping at either before or after your hike. If hiking isn't your thing, relaxing at the park is a nice way to spend the day too.

Come to this park if you want to see the most beautiful sunset you ve ever seen. This is also where big little lies was shot and if you re a huge fan you should definitely come here and look for the stairs where the season 1 ended, no spoliers

One of the best park in la. I found out that this park is donated by ms. Barnsdell and her dreams continues on this park. Need more public space in la.

Great park. I can always find parking and they have great events in the theater.

You can see the observatory and the Hollywood sign. Public bathrooms. Nice
Place to sit on the grass and relax

Wonderful atmosphere with great views of LA and Hollywood. Highly recommended!

Is it a public park or occupied by one group of crazy kids, and no one cares what they do. They throw balls into people, run among resting people, and scream a lot. I'm so disappointed. I have never seen any security here.

Just drove bye it's in Hollywood area above Hollywood Blvd.
