Los Angeles has great museums. The J. Paul Getty Museum is in West LA. It�s a great place for people to go see some fine art and get one of the best views in the city.

this museum features some of the most amazing architecture in the world. it's almost as impressive as the art it contains, almost. its location, high atop the bel air hills in LA, is unrivaled and incomparable to any other museum in the world. from its patios, not only can you see clear into the ocean, you can also see clear across the LA landscape. i'd recommend going on a weekday to avoid large crowds!
