Hollywood
About
Hollywood is the birthplace and shorthand of LA's film industry. The tourist core is Hollywood Blvd: the Walk of Fame, the TCL Chinese Theatre, the Dolby Theatre (home of the Oscars) and Ovation Hollywood. The Hollywood Sign on the hill is visible from lots of spots. The strip is crowded and a bit gritty; see the highlights, then move on to Los Feliz or West Hollywood.
Jasmine says
Your first time, you'll definitely come.
Photos, the Walk of Fame, the Chinese Theatre,
and then you'll get why I say:
come by day, stay somewhere else at night.
Hollywood is a movie title, not a lifestyle.
The real Hollywood magic
is in summer nights at the Bowl and the booths of old diners.
Packed with sights, and the area where you most need to adjust expectations.
