Introduction

Griffith Park, the largest urban park in North America and the largest local park in Los Angeles, is a must-see destination for tourists. The five-story Hollywood sign is one of the best places to take pictures. The Griffith Observatory at the top of the mountain has a wide view, and visitors can enjoy the panoramic view of West Hollywood as well as the bustling night scene in Los Angeles. The observatory also has many astronomical and physical knowledge and pictures, and a 12-inch giant telescope, the largest in California, for visitors to stargaze. Griffith Park also has rich vegetation and landscapes inhabited by Native Americans, especially many wild sagebrushes and oak trees. Here, visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery, visit the zoo, golf course, museum, observatory, or walk along the hiking and horseback riding trails, and even take a train tour. Every Thursday from 6pm to 9pm, Griffith Park hosts the famous Griffith Farmers Market, offering a variety of fresh fruits and snacks. The most beautiful time is of course during sunset. It is recommended for visitors to come here before sunset, take a unique photo with the Hollywood sign, and enjoy the beautiful night view.
