  • I walk through the Griffith Observatory tourist attraction in Los Angeles. The Observatory was built in 1935 and is free of charge. It is located on Mount Hollywood with great views of the Hollywood Sign in the distance. The Observatory features many exhibits relating to science and astronomy, with terraces and a new underground exhibit area.

      The film opened on October 3rd 1955. Three days after James Dean died on September 30th. Sal Mineo and Natalie Wood also died young. The observatory/planetarium plays a central role in the movie. It raises the story to a kind of mythic drama.

    Every year California is one of our vacation stops. We’ve always wanted to visit Griffith Observatory and we never have. There’s so many things to do & see in California. We’ve started making a list of things to see in California that we haven’t been to...This has gone on the list.. Best part is that there’s no admission fee. That’s great that it’s accessible to everyone. Bravo to the City of L.A!!! Thank you ActionKid

    I've been to LA twice and the first thing I did there during both visits was go to Griffith Observatory. It's one of my favorite places, from the Art Deco architecture to the very well executed science displays and the incredible history (there are other amazing research institutions nearby: JPL, Palomar Observatory, etc.). The last time I was there was right before the 2012 Transit of Venus, which I observed from Mount Wilson Observatory.
    I hope you took the time to explore the place in more detail after giving us the quick walk-through tour, and it was nice you got to see it on a wicked clear day, with no haze or smoke covering the city.

    The views are superb! I could watch for hours without boredom!
    I'm glad kids, young people and all ages are interested in knowledge of our planet and solar system.
    I'm mostly amazed by the creative people that created this Observatory! Everything makes you question and be curious.
