The 31 Best Things to Do in Los Angeles, From Santa Monica Surfing to Hollywood Theaters | Condé Nast Traveler

"An Art Deco stargazing destination atop Mount Hollywood, the observatory combines exhibit halls (including a rare Tesla coil), a planetarium with engaging shows, photogenic views of the Hollywood sign, and a 12-inch Zeiss telescope that sees more than 600 guests nightly — delivering experiences that range from romantic to gleefully awed to humbling." - Maxwell Williams
