Take a tour of Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, United States -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.



When most people think of seeing stars in L.A., their minds jump to celebrities.



Really, though, the best place for star-gazing in Los Angeles is the Griffith Observatory.



Colonel Griffith J. Griffith donated both land and money for the observatory in his will.



Construction began in 1933, and the complex opened in 1935 and was immediately swamped by visitors.



The vast observatory includes telescopes and a planetarium.



This facility is an important piece of history as Apollo astronauts learned celestial navigation here.



The Griffith Observatory has plenty of exhibits that will appeal to visitors of all ages.
