This shopping-and-entertainment complex is also a tribute to Hollywood history. Starting from Hollywood Boulevard, walk up the simulated “red carpet.” Read the Hollywood stories set into the walk in mosaic. They’re quotes from people who came to make their fortunes in Hollywood, from camera operators to mega-stars.
Pillars topped with elephants tower over the main plaza, recreations from the set of D. W. Griffith’s classic movie Intolerance. Walk to the back of the complex to lounge on the oversized casting couch and get a photo of the Hollywood sign.
