Los Angeles Botanical Garden Peacock Garden Getty Center Observatory

This is my second time in Los Angeles. This trip mainly visited the Getty Center, Griffith Observatory, and Arcadia Botanical Garden, also known as Peacock Garden. California's coastline is very long, and this time I drove to many seaside attractions. I especially took a small boat here by the sea to have a look. It was quite beautiful.
