<p>I definitely agree with Getty Center. I would also add Griffith Park and Observatory (plan to be there at sunset.) All the museums in Exposition Park (across from USC) are free though special exhibits may have an admission price. </p>
<p>Fun restaurants in downtown LA include Bottega Louie (noisy) and I love the food at Wokcano. There are restaurants and attractions at LA Live as well.</p>
<p>The Grove and Farmer’s Market (adjacent to each other) offer great shopping and dining.</p>
<p>If you have never been to Disneyland, then go!</p>
