13 Most Instagrammable Places in LA

1. Micheltorena Stairs

Address: 3400 Sunset Blvd

Known as the "Secret Stairs" on Sunset Boulevard, the Micheltorena Stairs were painted by artist Corinne Carey who actually painted the steps at night so that she wouldn't get caught illegally painting the public property. She distinctly painted the steps in hopes that her street art would change the atmosphere of the area that was once riddled with homelessness and violence.

2. Griffith Observatory

Address: 2800 E Observatory Rd

A popular Southern California attraction, the observatory is situated in Griffith Park and bares the vastly magnificent sights of downtown Los Angeles, Hollywood, and the Pacific Ocean from its observation deck.
