Did you know you can come face to face with dinosaurs in Los Angeles? 🦕 This is the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, home to more than 35 million specimens and artifacts. 🏛️ Here you can explore one of the largest dinosaur collections in the western United States, including a towering Tyrannosaurus rex! 🦖

See everything from dazzling gems and minerals to Ice Age mammals and an award-winning Dinosaur Hall, featuring more than 300 fossils and 20 mounted skeletons. 🦴 Outside, you can stroll the 3.5-acre Nature Gardens, which attract countless species of birds, butterflies, and other native wildlife. 🦜 You could spend a whole day here and not see everything! 🏺 Whether you’re visiting with kids or not, it’s one of L.A.’s most fascinating places. 📜
