Travel Town, the Los Angeles City Recreation and Park Department’s unique display of vehicles representing many modes and eras of conveyances, is visited each week by hundreds of youngsters and adults who are interested in the development of transportation.

Located on a 9-acre site at 5200 Hollingsworth Drive in Griffith Park, Travel Town is open to the public daily from 10a.m. to 5 p.m. There is no admission charge. Displaying everything from a 104-ton locomotive to a one-horse shay, Travel Town offers its visitors what for most of them is the only opportunity they ever have to see and examine at close hand many different types of vehicles.

The Travel Town Museum is an open air museum in Griffith Park, and dogs are invited if they are on a leash, and of course, cleaned up after! We love puppers in the park, however, the train ride does not allow our four footed friends to ride, and because of food being sold, dogs are not welcome in the Gift shop unless they are service dogs performing a specific job. (Strollers aren’t allowed either; its just not that big a store!)

If you have any other questions, please reach out. Our Museum also has 4 feral cats that help keep rodents in control, so there is usually a water bowl near the central crossing building. Several of our volunteers regularly bring their pooches while they work
