Parks & Nature

Joshua Tree National Park’s night sky is unpolluted, crystal clear, and perfect for stargazing. This observatory is located just outside of the northern entrance to the park, and on Saturday nights, the public is invited to look through its telescopes, which are manned by volunteer astronomers.

Walk through two separate and unique oases to see what occurs as the San Andreas fault bisects the valley. This walk will typically take about 2 1/2 hours and will take you on a 2 mile (3.2 km) round trip. The signature of this hike is that it is about what you want to learn. You will look for wildlife and wildflowers, the San Andreas fault and the California fan palm. From the Cahuilla use of medicinal plants to how the fault forms the Indio Hills, Harlan looks for teachable moments to underscore the beauty of this desert. Harlan is a retired teacher whose curiosity keeps him learning. He loves to share what he knows.

This popular destination, perched on the crest of the Little San Bernardino Mountains, provides panoramic views of the Coachella Valley and is well worth the 20-minute drive from Park Boulevard down Keys View Road. On a really clear day, you might be able to see Signal Mountain in Mexico

This roadhouse is the perfect spot to catch a bluegrass band—or any artist, really. The venue is intimate and rustic, but don’t let that fool you. Artists as famous as Paul McCartney have played on its stage, and it’s ranked as one of the best concert venues in not just Los Angeles, but also the U.S. as a whole.

Arts & Culture

Midsized museum’s impressive permanent collection mirrors some of the works you’ll see at LA’s preeminent institutions, including pieces by Picasso, Warhol, and Lichtenstein. But in keeping with the museum’s roots, it also has a wing devoted to American Indian and Western American art. The museum was founded in 1938
