Anyway, behind the romantic look, this bridge has unfortunate history of suicides. More than 100 people have jumped to their death from the tall bridge. But, don't be afraid of that, even many people said this bridge is haunted but it still look beautiful :)

Griffith Observatory

The last place that I visit is Griffith Observatory located in 2800 E Observatory Rd, Los Angeles, was opended at 1935. Admission to this Observatory is free but if you're going to watch show in planetarium, you should pay tickets about $ 7 for adult. This observatory is place where Mia and Sebastian date and float through the Griffith Observatory. Very amazing. FYI, this Observatory is open daily from 12 pm to 10 pm. In the evening, the view is very stunning, such a perfect place for a date night!
