Griffith Park · Los Angeles, CA
Why you should go…
Erected in 1923 as a real-estate ad and repaired into a permanent landmark by 1978, the sign sits on Mount Lee above Griffith Park. There is no public access to the letters themselves, but Lake Hollywood Park, Griffith Observatory, and several hiking trails all offer classic photo angles.
