We began a splendid day on the Blvd with an early morning breakfast in the courtyard of the charming Chateau Marmont. Then joined Hollywood Blvd at Laurel Canyon and headed eastwards. In the glorious morning sunshine great vistas of palm tree lined routes were to be seen. We took a detour along Fuller Ave to Runyon Canyon Park and enjoyed a stroll there. A brand of bottled water was being promoted close to the entrance and we gratefully accepted a few containers. Famous for its theatres, we saw some of the best - Grauman's Chinese, El Capitan, Dolby and Pantages. At the latter we booked for a performance of Anastasia. A delicious lunch was in California Pizza Kitchen, in Hollywood and Highland. From where we had great views of the Hollywood Sign. We enjoyed a visit to Madame Tussauds where the most famous stars, past and current, are wonderfully portrayed. Along the Walk of Fame it was fun identifying so many of the illustrious entertainers from movies and music. Close by is the Hollywood Museum in the beautiful former Max Factor building, where we spent an absorbing hour or so. There are numerous lovely churches of various faiths along the thoroughfare. Some we visited included St. Thomas the Apostle, Mosaic, Hollywood United Methodist and First Presbyterian. The final museum we toured was the Museum of Death, which we found quite engaging.

This famous street-corner is a great place to begin a walking tour of Hollywood.
Reviewed By 569claudef - Bristol, United States
Once upon a time, I had an office on the 5th floor of the Hollywood Equitable Building, located at this legendary crossroad. The walk of stars, Capitol Records and the Pantages Theater are all within the block and everything Tinseltown is a short distance away. Sometimes seedy, sometimes glamorous, always entertaining. Happy trails.

Portraying an array of stars in full colour, it is eye-catching along the famous Boulevard. Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe are just two featuring. Painted by Tom Suriya in 1983, it reverses the normal order of a movie theatre. Here the stars are the audience looking at us.
