Many people have heard or know of Hollywood California as it contains many tourist sights to see. If you talk to 10 random people from all over the world who want to visit California, I'm highly certain that more than half of those people would agree to say they want to go to Hollywood. There are many places even within Hollywood that many people know, two of the most famous places are the sign and the sidewalk that contains famous names on stars.
The Hollywood Sign
There are a bunch of movies, television shows, and music videos that shows or mentions the Hollywood sign. One movie in particular that I remember has the sign is Friends With Benefits with Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake. In the movie, Justin's character takes Mila to the Hollywood sign and Mila's character then jumps over the fence to climb up the sign and chill in one of the letters. Then moments after the two of them were sitting, there were police trying to get them down via their helicopter. I'm sure there are many rules and maybe even some laws against hopping the fence and getting up close to the sign or going on the sign as it does bring many people from all over the world to look at it. They wouldn't spend that much money as they did making the sign to have it ruined by vandalism or something along those lines. The sign sits on the top of a hill where you can see a lot of California which is amazing and breathtaking (for me at least). The bottom below was taken at the top of the (driveable) hill and in the far distance you can see in small letters 'Hollywood'. I think the only way to get closer to the sign is to hike. Still from the distance we were at, the view was incredible.
Hollywood Walk of Fame
On Hollywood Blvd for a couple blocks there are stars on the streets of famous actors, actresses, musicians, who are well known will have their name on a star. There are also pictures that indicate what the person did, like a famously known singer might have a microphone or an actress or actor might have a film camera. It's a really cool experience to walk the streets and look at all of the famous people and what they do/did. When went here in 2012 I only took one picture due to having a set time schedule and it was ticking fast and we didn't have that much time to really look at the stars and take a picture of all our favorites. As you can tell with this picture there are a couple more feet in the corners of the picture, there were a bunch of people looking at the stars which comes to show this place is very busy and attracts many people .
