The Getty museum is just an 'out of this world' place. I had never visited it before but you really have to witness it to believe it. Despite the controversy on the ownership of some of the Art pieces on display (after the previous curator was arrested for trafficking) you can only be impressed by its collection of European Arts and Antiquities. But what can be even more amazing than the pieces themselves is both its location overlooking Los Angeles and offering a 360 degrees view over the city and the incredible ingenuosity of its architecture where you can clearly feel that every single detail has been carefully studied. It is particularly glowing white under a blue sky (even though the city below is not glowing because of the constant pollution as you can see above).
