Los Angeles is not famous for it's downtown but actually has some impressive building architecture. They even have the world's shortest railway to get up one steep hill. This cable railway was built in 1901 and tickets cost 25 cents. I visited what is referred to as the new J. Paul Getty Museum at The Getty centre . It has a magnificent hillside location north of Sunset Boulevard near Santa Monica.
Most visitors arrive by tram.
I was lucky to arrive just as the sun was setting. Even though the art was magnificent the building impressed me just as much. The last of this group is the station for the return tram trip. Examples of the art inside include these Rembrandt paintings. The first is technically perfect work made as a young man.
