If you have an appreciation for art, death, and history the museums are perfect to check out.
Website is very informative and easily navigable. The personnel are stellar (knowledgeable, helpful, patient, respectful). A stellar example in this organization is representative Amy Crocker who has assisted me with property purchases. Her genuine receptivity to family needs and concerns, diligence in offering options and locating desirable and affordable sites, non-pressure approach, plus basic kindness and patience has provided much support and assurance. 10 stars! To me, the Forest Lawn Glendale location and staff set a standard that many other industry businesses would be wise to emulate.
Beautiful and historical place to visit. Many celebrities such as Nat king Cole and Walt Disney have been buried here. They also offer art exhibits throughout the year. The exhibits are free of charge.
Very professional and very safe. I arrived and had a guided tour. The place is so clean and beautiful. Fatima was very profesional friendly and really listened to our needs. Over all a great experience.
Forest Lawn Glendale staff were kind, sensitive, flexible, and very capable. Their process was efficient, the options numerous, no sales pressure at all. They kept appointments on time, and the pricing was transparent and well explained. They make good use of technology which is especially helpful in the COVID era when travel is risky.
Just wish this could be my temporary resting place, until Christ returns and raises me from my grave!

I love You Michael my love forever and ever, We miss you so much dear, hope you will come again in future near, till rest peacefully here, O my dear, O my dear💖❤💜💛💚💙😟
My mom and I attended the funeral of our friend Caesar Castillo on October 1 1995 along with his wife, his daughters and several other friends. We really loved the seenery because there were plants everywhere. This place resembles a garden All the staff is very friendly and helpful, the only down side is that you see depressed people taking food and flowers to their dead relatives everwhere. But I personally believe that this is a very classy facility. I sincerely hope that when I die I can be buried or cremated here. Kudos everyone for keeping everthing so pretty and well-organized, keep up the great work!
I visited here back 2010
I was taken back by the beauty of this cemetary.
The grounds and landscapes are breath taking.
A beautiful place of calm and serenity in an other wise busy city.
A perfect resting place for a King.
Rest in eternal Peace Michael Jackson
Easy to get to friendly staff have one family friend buried here.
Great place to go very Christ Centered 👍🏻
The most beautiful cemetery I've ever seen. I also saw Michael Jackson's grave today. Very beautiful.
One of the most beautiful cemeteries in the world with its hillsides, landscapes, buildings, & museums. Growing up in Sun Valley near by, my father would bring us here in the 60's & 70's as kids. When he passed away in 1983. There was no question where to bury him for his resting place. The Great Masoleum is where many of the famous entertainers are buried. But, much of the mausoleum is private and not open to the public. You can spend the whole day here visiting without any cost. The grounds are immaculately kept and the settings European. The staff are accommodating and courteous. Great place to visit & the view of the San Fernando Valley & Los Angeles is breathtaking.
It's a beautiful place to pay your respects to some Hollywood's finest talent. Please make a point to visit the Great Mausoleum. It has some of the finest architecture I have ever seen.
This is Not Resting in Peace.
I cannot express how disrespectful it is to have to tolerate the "fans" of Michael Jackson, and the junk they leave at the Holly Terrace entrance EVERY TIME that I visit my beloved family members who have been interred there for decades.
EVERY TIME I visit I have to tolerate being interrupted by the Forest Lawn Security assigned to Michael Jackson.
It makes one wonder about his family and why he had such a troubled life.
It makes one wonder if this is just a publicity stunt by Forest Lawn.
I always visit my friends whose remains are located in the Great Mausoleum. The only complaint that I have is not directed to the staff that oversee this beautiful and breath taking scenery of this cemetery but of the public who visit. Be appreciative that these grounds are open to you, do not trespass or bother the bereaved relatives who visit their deceased family and friends.
This is not a gaudy tourist attraction; but a place of repose.
So impressed with this place! Was looking specifically for graves of my father's parents. They were buried before I was born in 1948 and 1964, and I hadn't been here so the plot number was a little challenging to find. As I was searching the scope of Liberty Hill where they are buried, I must have looked lost, as one of the planning advisors, Angela Vega, decided to stop and helpMind you -- she was off the clock -- on her way home..Regardless, she stayed with me for around 30 minutes as we searched and the sun began to set -- she wouldn't leave until we found their spaces A security guard also stopped to help -- everyone there is so kind. The grounds are well kept -- the trees are beautiful -- the sunset gorgeous -- An unexpected uplifting experience -- And when we finally found the plot of my grandparents, side by side -- there was such a breath of peace in the whole experience. Much thanks to you, Angela, and to the security guard as well :)

I used to visit this park frequently and loved the scenery. It wasn't until I spoke with a lady posing as their HR manager, Jenni, that I was turned off by the place. I called with enthusiasm to introduce myself and share some family history I have with the park, Jenni was very rude and snobby. She asked me to call back after filling out another application so she can "flag" my app, which I did yesterday, only to find out she can't do such a thing. The place is pretty well maintained and overall beautiful, just do yourself a favor and avoid consulting with their management staff.
