Nice view of the Los Angeles city from the top. I went on Sunday and it was quite crowded. Took 15 minutes to reach up. Overall worth the time.

Not only is it a stunning place to view the city and the Hollywood Sign any time of day, it's also so educational. Children ages 7 and up (but 11 is probably better) would find something to keep them engaged. Watch out for parking when there's an event on at the Greek Theatre though! You may find yourself with no where to park, or even worse, parking halfway up the hill! (DASH transport busses are a good option and are available for 50c each way as at 06/24/2017)

Just go! Today! I've lived here many years. Take the kids. Parking is free at the bottom. Fifty cents for the ride up. Walk down back to the parking lot. Also the #oldlazoo
