::LA Plaza De Culturas y Artes (LA Plaza for short) is a very cool free museum! It is a Mexican American museum and cultural center. There are a ton of free museums in the area, but I think this one wins for best experience. It is much bigger than it looks and there is a lot of information! I wish the Italian American Museum upped their game to rival this one in size. We really enjoyed ourselves here. The staff member was SUPER nice and charming too. The Gateway to Nature is a small nature center with various activities or children to learn about nature. It's pretty cool as they're not trying to sell you anything... they just want you to come in, learn and have a good time. My toddler was getting a bit antsy from all the museums we were visiting, so this was a nice break where he could go in, sit down and color 'til his heart was content. He was even given a free comic book about Smokey The Bear! This isn't a huge place, but I'm very thankful that this was here. Make this into a day trip! My toddler and I literally visited 6 museums! There are small museums all around here and almost all of them are free! Start your journey with a walk down Olvera Street! Catch the Avila Adobe, maybe have lunch or a snack. Then walk across the way and visit The Chinese American Museum, the Plaza Firehouse Museum and the new Gateway to Nature (which is a nature center full of things for kids to do). Then walk across the street to La Plaza De Culturas y Artes museum. Maybe poke your head into Our Lady of Angeles Church. I'm very Atheist, but this is historic as it's literally what named and started Los Angeles. Then continue down Main street and hit up the American Tropical Historical Museum and end with the Italian American Museum! There are a few other things in there too I think I missed. A great day!

::This is a great spot. A rare museum that isn't about selfies but just really meaningful exhibits that celebrate Los Angeles and its origins. And it's free now! And I really enjoy the store- they sell funky, fashionable things. I want to attend their events- they sound really cool.

::La plaza was a great experience. Not only did it help with some of my Spanish skills, but the culture infused me. It was so rich and the place itself was by far a hidden gem. I would have never have guessed that I could find something so beautiful right here at Olvera Street.
