Visiting the Getty Villa & Getty Center in One Day

  • The Getty and Getty Villa are two of the best places to visit on a trip to Los Angeles. These museums are full of amazing art and sculptures, while the museum structures themselves and the gardens are works of art as well. I always enjoy visiting the museums when I have the chance and I recommend you check them both out as well. This video just provides a short introduction based on a recent video but it barely scratches the surface of what there is to see at the two museums. Let me know what you think in the comments.

    One of my nephews worked at the Getty Museum off 405 freeway while he went to school at UCLA. He was a security person who made sure nobody touched or got too close to the paintings. LOL! His uniform was three piece suit provided by the Getty.

    For me, having traveled to Pompeii in Italy, the garden and architectural tours are the most important fascinating part of the villa. It explains why it was built the way it was and what the significance of the replica sculptures in the garden. In Naples I saw the originals they were copied after. Seeing them at the Getty snd not in a museum is so much more impactful. I love Getty center, probably the best museum of art ever. The fact that both are free is astonishing. Thanks for posting

I visited it more than 20 years ago, when I came to the States for a summer seminar at UCSD. I love your channel!!! It’s my guide to get to know California 🙂

    Haven''t to the hilltop museum in awhile, its easy getting there but a hassle driving back to Hollywood via streets. I always visit the photo gallery which is at the end of the fountain when looking out the main entry building. And it is possible to make arrangements to view the photo study area too. Used to take groups of photo students.
