  Couple of weeks ago, I've posted a blog about the Getty Centre Museum, last weekend we went to the first original Getty “Getty Villa” in Malibu which was first opened to the public in 1974 then closed for renovation in 1997, six months before they open up the Getty Centre in LA.
  
  
  
  The architecture design was quite different from the LA Getty Centre, Getty Villa was designed to look like a 
  first-century Roman country house “Villa dei Papiri” and it exhibit Greek, Roman and Etruscan artifacts.
  
  
  Once again thanks for the J. Paul Getty
