    From the Chinese theater to the crazy costumed super-hero squad constantly busking, this is the quintessential Hollywood. LA's version of Times Square. Check out the Cirque Du Soleil store! Read more

    Definitely a tourist trap, but you may as well get the full Hollywood experience. Shopping, giant Egyptian archways and elephant statues, Star walk and Dolby Theater.

    via LA Mag: A great base camp for spending a day in Hollywood. The validated parking is a deal ($3 for 2 hrs), and the restaurants are a refuge. And you can take the subway here--fancy that!

    Center also includes Grauman's Chinese Theatre, home to the Academy Awards. The historic site was once the home of Hollywood Hotel. Located in the heart of Hollywood, along the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

    Check out the Dolby theatre, upscale bowling alley Lucky Strike and the sidewalk is the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame! Plenty of choices of stores and places to eat when being a tourist for the day.

    Typical mall for the "Hollywood tourist" with lots of shopping, food and entertainment. And on a clear day, one of the best spots for the Hollywood Sign photo ops

    After walking around Hollywood's walk of fame, enjoy shopping here. And don't forget to view the Hollywood sign from the terrace.

    If you're going to the Hollywood Bowl, the Orange Court is on the second floor of the mall, by the Starline tour bus office. The buses are at the end of the lot.

    This should be a No Smoking area especially when it's not completely enclosed. I'd like to keep my lungs healthy while I'm having lunch! ;)

    Pay attention to where you park. Take a picture, write down the location. Do something to help yourself to remember. Like use your over priced phones.
