Description:
In 1896, self-made millionaire Colonel Griffith J. Griffith donated his 3500-acre ranch to the City of Los Angeles. Originally, an isolated mountainous property several miles outside the city limits, the land seemed to offer little to the people of Los Angeles. But the land was transformed. Today, Griffith Park is visited annually by 12 million people. The park attractions include a host of recreational facilities - bridle trails, golf courses and two nature camps. Griffith Park also is home to a zoo, museums, a bird sanctuary and the world-famous Griffith Observatory.
