A "must-see" site is the official Hollywood Walk of Fame outside of Grauman's Chinese Theatre. The street is paved with the handprints - and occasionally the prints of other body parts - celebrity stars and signatures of Hollywood icons. As you walk down the world's most famous sidewalk, you will meet the characters of Hollywood Boulevard-the street performers and vendors who have taken to the Walk of Fame over the decades.
