What to do in Hollywood
With a city as large as Los Angeles, it is no surprise that there is plenty to do. However, what may come as a surprise is the variety of activity in Los Angeles. For a city known for the upscale shopping of Rodeo Drive and the wild antics of Hollywood stars, Los Angeles also provides a plethora of entertainment for those interested in academia and the arts.
There are countless things to do near Hollywood Colony
beautiful apartments for rent. A few among them are the
Walt Disney Concert Hall and the
Griffith Observatory. Designed by Frank Gehry, The Walt Disney Concert Hall shares Gehry’s signature warped steel aesthetic, similar to the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain and the stage in Millennium Park in Chicago. The concert hall hosts acts such as the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Emanuel Ax. The concert hall is only seven miles from Hollywood Colony.
The
Griffith Observatory, only four and a half miles from Hollywood Colony, is perfect for those that have maintained a lifelong love for learning about the wonders of the universe! And it gets even better—admission to the observatory and grounds is free and there is a small fee for seeing shows in the Samuel Oschin Planetarium. Most of the special events are free as well and there are enough of them to keep an avid stargazer busy throughout every week and weekend. During January alone, they have hosted viewing of Comet Lovejoy, a public star party, and a sunset walk and talk given by a park ranger.
