Diorama-Museum of Bhagavad-gita

Museum

👍👍 Interesting experience about Hinduism! I think the presentations inside the museum was really eye opening. $10 to get in with RSVP (the door is locked sometimes). I would go again when the temple is opened to the public (went to the vegetarian buffet first and missed the viewing time 😅)

Neutra VDL Studio and Residences

Architect

👍👍 Excellent landmark with knowledgeable tour guides. After the tour they give you free rein to explore the beautiful Neutra residence. It appears the program that manages this property could use some donations for restoration work but it's still in remarkable condition.

FIDM Museum

👍👍 It was really beautiful, small decent place for my residents (I work for an assisted living facility) to walk along with plenty of space for their walkers. Tricky parking, though. Entrance was FREE! But donations welcomed, by the door.
