This might be LA's best hidden gem . Sunset views of Hollywood are ridic. Catch an outdoor movie in the summer: food trucks , wine/beer tasting at a much more intimate venue than Hollywood Forever.

You’ll find massive sculptures , neat lawns, and local Angelenos lounging , playing guitar, and painting . There's also one of the city ’s best local art galleries and ideal vistas of the Hollywood sign . Read more

It's not spectacular by any means, but there's something so charming about this park . Space to relax, architecture , a sculpture garden , an art gallery , theatre , etc. Perfect to relax.

A gem in the middle of a ratty Hollywood neighborhood . If you can stand the homeless people lying around, it's a beautiful place to visit.
