Getty Center Pairs a Hillside Tram with Art
Explore galleries, pause beside sculpted hedges, and leave room for the open plazas between them.
🚋 Art Above the City
The Getty Center starts before the first gallery, with a tram ride up the hillside. Richard Meier designed this Brentwood campus as connected buildings and open plazas. Follow the gallery wings, then step outside for pale stone walls, tables under umbrellas, and views across Los Angeles.
The garden brings another kind of composition, with clipped hedges curling through water. Leave room for those outdoor pauses between the art collections.
Before setting out, check the current opening schedule and reserve tickets online. Admission is free. Leave time for both the galleries and the gardens rather than relying on a fixed closing time. The address is 1200 Getty Center Dr.
