Part of the city's buzz is that the stars still live and work here - you never know who you might glimpse.

Try window shopping on Melrose Avenue, Sunset Strip or Rodeo Drive where Julia Roberts shopped for her new wardrobe in "Pretty Woman". Sashay down to Mann's Chinese theatre, where the prints, hooves and paws of 200 stars of Hollywood's golden age are immortalised in concrete. You can have your own prints made and framed at the theatre. Then wander the Hollywood Walk of Fame and find your favourites among the 2,000 pavement stars. Take the Universal Studios tour; it's a theme park and working Hollywood studio all in one. Then see Paramount studios where you can watch TV shows being taped.
