Griffith Observatory Lookout View of Los Angeles

The featured image was taken on the circular path that wraps around the Griffith Observatory in Griffith Park. Walk around the building until you reach the GPS coordinates. For a familiar photo, the photographer would want to stand to the left of the model on the same circular pathway, and they may need to lean outwards to get balanced views of the observatory and city backdrop. Get there early to secure a parking spot! The easiest way to access the location is by car or public transportation. You can either park for free at The Greek Theatre and walk up the hill (about a mile) or pay for parking at The Observatory lot, the West Observatory Road lot or the Western Canyon lot. Public transportation is available via the DASH Observatory route. For more information, visit The Observatory's website: http://griffithobservatory.org/visiting/directions.html
