End the evening with a walk through the adjacent Westwood Village shopping district. The pedestrian-friendly streets are lively as the shops stay open late.
Local tip
The park closes at dusk, so arrive before the sun goes down to ensure you can stay for the final moments. The ice cream shop is open until 21:00, so timing your treat early ensures it does not melt too quickly.
