Getty Center: International Art & Gardens

Journey with us to the magnificent Getty Center, perched on 110 acres in the Santa Monica Mountains, offering a mesmerizing panoramic view of Brentwood. Unlike its smaller counterpart, the Getty Villa in Malibu, this sprawling museum boasts an array of ever-evolving exhibitions. Marvel at a rich assortment of pre-20th-century European masterpieces—from paintings, drawings, and illuminated manuscripts to sculptures and decorative arts. Take in the vivid tapestry of 19th- and 20th-century American and European photography. Traverse lush gardens and terraces unveiling breathtaking vistas, spanning from Downtown Los Angeles to the serene Pacific Ocean, and enjoy a leisurely lunch on your own at one of the center’s charming eateries. Whether you're a first-timer or a returning guest, join us to discover both new exhibits and timeless treasures.
