The only fee is to park your vehicle, then you take a tram up the museum. Most of the buildings were made of these large white stone blocks with clean edges, very bright inside, and quite expansive.
My favorite part about the museum is their gardens! Here is a photo of the stream that runs through their shaded garden.
Then the stream empties out into a pond below the geometric hedge. The bottom of the pond has pennies in it, where wishes were made! I did throw a penny or two in..
These metal sculptures with bougainvillea are very striking in person! I am able to weld, so this project is even more impressive to me--knowing the time it would of taken to build these and them being able support the weight of the plant too.
You can find out more information about the Getty here.

Sounds fun! xoxox
ReplyDeleteIt was a beautiful day in a beautiful place with great company. I'd be happy going there and just hanging out but the galleries were the icing on the cake, so to speak.
