Hollywood Hollywood Sign
Posted: Wed January 28, 2009 08:09 AM UTC
I read somewhere that we can have a good view of Hollywood sign on Hollywood & Highland centre? Is this true?

Please let me know where to best catch this and have a picture that is clear (without background of crowd).

Thanks!

I thought the view of the Hollywood sign from Griffith Park up near the Griffith Observatory was quite good with no obstruction.

This website shows the view from Hollywood & Highland

The best place in my own opinion is from Griffith Park. it's unobstructed, the crowds are few and far between and it's fairly close so the picture will come out well.

I agree that the Griffth Observatory is the place to get an unobstucted view of the sign. I have a picture of the sign (regular distance, no zoom) on my VT Los Angeles home page. See: http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/736c8/b80ac/

I read that as well so while there last week I took a photo from the Hollywood/Highland center and though you can get the Hollywood sign it is very far away. I would go with the other suggestion from Griffith Park.
