This large area in northern Los Angeles called Hollywood is one of the most visited place in the USA. Wandering on Hollywood Boulevard or Melrose Avenue you will see many movie theaters. Not a big surprise for a town which makes more than 60% of the world movie production. It is definitely the place to be if you want to watch the new releases. If you are looking for more thoughtful movies you can stay in southern California but you'd better be patient.
But more than for its movies hollywood has become famous for its stars. Celebrated on the Walk of Fame, movie stars are gathered in a beautiful kind of ghetto named beverly hills, located west from Hollywood. Celebrity is the main goal for all those who come to Hollywood. Unfortunately in Los Angeles ca dreams are more often shattered than fulfilled.
Those trying to live a new life far from Hollywood but who still want to be as laid back as a Californian can be, may go to San Diego. This quiet city at the mexican border will be the shelter you need after you fell from grace in the city of angels.
