Top Observatories Planetariums in USA

I think many people miss the beautiful views from the upper levels of the station. Don't forget to take the stairs up to the balcony for some great photos!

Make sure to download the Griffith Park app. It helps with hiking trails and gives info on some cool nearby attractions that you might miss otherwise

I recommend visiting around 3 PM. The sunset views from the observatory are stunning and you can catch the evening stars, which is a really great experience.

My advice is to check out the planetarium shows! They’re educational and really entertaining, but get your tickets early to avoid long lines.

If you can, visit on a weekday. I went on a Saturday, and it was packed! Weekdays are much quieter, and you’ll have a much better experience without the rush.
