Hollywood, Los Angeles –
Arguably LA’s most popular tourist attraction, Hollywood Boulevard’s one-mile main stretch is packed with souvenir shops, museums, a mall, restaurants, and bars.
Tourists from all over the world crowd the Walk of Fame to click photos of the brass celebrity stars embedded in the sidewalk that celebrate everyone from Charlie Chaplin and Julia Roberts to Lassie the Dog, or join the bumper-to-bumper traffic in the intersection of Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue to see the Times Square-like collection of billboards, neon signs, and sprawling open-air mall and entertainment complex.
Visitors and locals alike take advantage of the shopping at such stores as H&M and American Eagle, occasionally stopping to check out street performers, incense vendors, or costumed oddballs dressed like Superman, Shrek, or Darth Vader in front of the famous Grauman’s Chinese Theatre.
By night, the street comes alive with a different energy as dressed-up diners descend on trendy restaurants like Katsuya, and fashionable, high-spirited night owls hit one of the many hot clubs, lounges, or bars – like Las Palmas or Dillon's Irish Pub – that the area is known for.
Buzzing with activity 24/7, Hollywood Boulevard is a vibrant destination for sightseers, people-watchers, and those looking for the top party scene in LA.
