👍👍 Magical & Enchanting! An any railfan young & old must-see! This is a residence off Christmas Tree Lane that has turned its backyard into a model railroad fan's paradise!

Michael Myers’ House
Tourist attraction
👍👍 My childhood nightmare that became one of my all time slasher favorite obsession. Haha!

Desert Garden
Botanical garden
👍👍 This garden looks other worldly. It was easily my favorite garden at Huntington. People that work on film sets might find it blasé as my companion, in response to my amazement, was like “oh yeah you don’t work on sets”. Me mockingly “Ooooo I’m so cool, I worked on sci-fi movies”. Which is cool, but...

The Big Bang Theory Rooftop
Tourist attraction
😠 This place practically burnt down last year and it's obvious the owners merely slapped some paint on the place and placed this landmark on Google to cover it up... this isn't a museum and is a barely livable tenement building.

Ma Durga Temple
Hindu temple
😐 I never thought I would leave this temple an average rating. Temple means divinity. Just maintaining a place clean and neat is not enough for temples. I used to visit this temple 2009 to 2014 almost every week. I then moved out and now living far. Recently visited while driving on the way and took e...
