WILSHIRE. One of the world's richest fossil sites, La Brea Tar Pits is the setting for this intriguing museum.

Guests also get a first-hand glimpse of fossil preparation in the paleontological laboratory. When you've completed the interior attractions, stroll through the surrounding park and enjoy its sights and sounds. As an added bonus, Pit 91 is still being excavated, and visitors can observe the scientific undertakings during July and August.
