Hollywood, California, where stardom lays just a breath and a dream away. This mecca of wanderlust, fantasy, and decades of celluloid whimsy is as beautiful and magical in its reality as in the wishes of millions who step into the city each year. Beneath the plush houses on the hills surrounding that oh so famous sign, lay streets paved with stars not just from the footsteps of those following the paths of legends, but literally in the form of the celebrated Walk of Fame. Several movie studios, record labels, and publishing companies can be found there as well. Tourists can spend hours, days even, sightseeing along Hollywood Boulevard taking in everything from the mundane and nostalgic to the downright cutting edge and absurd.

When the sun sets, catch a summertime concert at the world famous Hollywood Bowl or hit the clubs of the more infamous Sunset Strip where rock legends past and present have turned a troubadour's life of debauchery and excess into an art form.
