The Hollywood Sign is one of America's most iconic cultural symbols. Located in Los Angeles, California, the 45 foot tall and 450 foot long landmark was originally erected in 1923 as an advertisement for a local real estate development called 'Hollywoodland'. It has since undergone restoration due to deterioration from weather and acts of vandalism that changed it from "Hollywoodland" to just "Hollywood". From its gold-era beginnings to its appearance in countless media, the Sign has become an intertwined part of American pop culture. It draws visitors from all over the world to hike up to or take pictures of distinguished site. No matter where you are, when you see it you know you are in the land of Hollywood!
