What To Expect

Vedanta Society of Southern California

The Vedanta Society of the Ramakrishna Order serves as a pioneering bridge between East and West, inspired by one of India’s great spiritual leaders, Swami Vivekananda. Its iconic white, three-domed Vedanta Temple, established in 1938 overlooking Hollywood, along with the monastery and active educational center, has drawn renowned figures such as Gerald Heard, Alan Watts, and Aldous Huxley.

Monastery of the Angels

This cloistered Dominican monastery has been a cherished part of the Hollywood Hills since 1934, becoming the first in the U.S. to practice Perpetual Adoration of the Eucharist. For nearly a century, the nuns' continuous chants have echoed through the hills, creating a timeless spiritual presence.

Lake Hollywood Park

Take in breathtaking, close-up views of the Hollywood Sign, Lake Hollywood, and the scenic hills. Discover the intriguing history of the Hollywood Cross and the mystical roots of the Hollywood Bowl. (Small optional walk available.)

Los Feliz

We'll explore the grounds of the Philosophical Research Society, a center devoted to preserving and studying ancient wisdom, philosophy, and spiritual traditions from around the globe. Founded in 1934 by the renowned mystic and scholar Manly P. Hall, the PRS Library houses over 20,000 rare books and esoteric manuscripts collected from across the world. On the drive through Los Feliz, one of LA's trendiest neighborhoods, we'll pass by the First Sikh Temple in the US (with an optional quick stop) and Yogananda's Self-Realization Fellowship.
