Perched atop Mount Lee in Griffith Park, the Hollywood Sign is an internationally recognized symbol of the American entertainment industry. Originally erected in 1923 as a real estate billboard spelling "HOLLYWOODLAND," the 45-foot-tall white steel letters have stood through century-long cultural history. While direct contact with the letters is restricted, scenic hiking trails and lookout points offer spectacular panoramic photo backdrops.
