But can you believe that one of the things that also makes Los Angeles such a unique city is its love for classical and modern art? Next time you stay in the City of Angels, you might want to take a break from all its craziness and visit the J. Paul Getty Museum of art.

The Getty Museum was once a private art collection owned by J. Paul Getty, a wealthy oil tycoon. It was founded by J. Paul Getty and opened in Malibu in 1954, relocated to Los Angeles in 1997, and is now one of the city’s most popular museums to this day. The Getty has many amazing attractions that keep visitors coming back, including the acclaimed painting Irises by Vincent Van Gogh, hallways full of sculptures inspired by Ancient Greece and Rome, and their lush gardens that visitors love to stroll in.

The Getty rests on a tall hill that towers over Los Angeles and has balconies that provide a breathtaking panoramic view of the city. Walking around the museum is so relaxing because with the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles below, you get to appreciate beautiful works of art in peace and quiet. The Getty Museum is a special place where you can enjoy yourself and escape reality through art.
