Places to see ...

Capitol Records Building
Located at 1750 North Vine Street, this landmark building is one of Hollywood’s most recognized icons. The light on its rooftop spire flashes “Hollywood” in Morse code. In the lobby you will find displayed gold albums of its many artists. John Lennon, Garth Brooks, and other Capitol artists’ stars are on the sidewalk in front of the building.

Hollywood Forever Cemetery
The oldest Hollywood cemetery and one of the most visited final resting places, Rudolf Valentino, Douglas Fairbanks Sr., Cecil B. De Mille, Jayne Mansfield, Marion Davies, and Tyrone Power are all interred here.

Mann's Chinese Theatre
Formerly Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, this Hollywood icon stands at 6925 Hollywood Boulevard. It was built in 1927 by Sid Grauman and hosted many star-studded movie premieres and events in Hollywood’s early days. Today it still draws the stars with its famous footprint ceremonies, a tradition that started with Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks in 1927.

Hollywood Sign
One of the most recognizable images in our country and around the world, this landmark sits high atop the Hollywood Hills
