VIBE
Ever synonymous with celebrity excess, legendary Sunset Boulevard manages to encompass everything from the poshest of starlet-packed streets in leafy districts like Bel-Air to the legendary nightlife of the Sunset Strip. Running from downtown LA to the Pacific coast, major sites along this notoriously dangerous and serpentine road include Silver Lake’s boho shopping district, Hollywood High School, and some oh-so-upscale Beverly Hills residences.

WHY WE LIKE IT
A drive down Sunset Boulevard lets you glimpse all that’s “la-la” about LA, from the garish to the glittering.
WHAT WE WOULD CHANGE
The potholes and the rush hour traffic jams.
GOOD TO KNOW
Outside of rush hour, traffic can zip along here, so don’t expect to be able to poke along and snap photos.
