22 Los Angeles & Orange County Stars are everywhere you look in one of California's most famous cities, whether it's through the lenses of the Griffith Observatory's telescopes or that of your camera as you celebrity-spot on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills or the corner of Hollywood and Vine. Characters jump off famous screens like that of the legendary Chinese Theater to entertain on the Walk of Fame and in theme parks such as the original Walt Disney ® attraction and Universal Studios Hollywood. SM It's not all Kodak Theater red carpet glitz in the O.C. though; the stunning coastline of this destination is a show- stopper in and of itself. Santa Monica, the final destination on Route 66, is named among the "Top Ten Beach Cities in the World" by National Geographic, its famous pier marking the end of this historic highway. Huntington Beach is the headlining destination for surfers from around the world, and Laguna Beach for pop culture enthusiasts. Elegant Newport Beach combines culture and seaside pleasure with sunset cruises, wine tastings, and an annual film festival that brings it all full circle. 2 1 1 1 2 19 19 91 60 27 27 19 72 57 39 57 39 55 55 22 73 134 142 170 118 210 210 405 405 405 405 605 605 110 110 710 105 210 10 5 5 5 101 0 6 miles 0 6 km P A C I F I C O C E A N LO S A N G E L E S B E V E R LY H I L L S TO R R A N C E G A R D E N A D O W N E Y G A R D E N G R O V E S A N TA A N A A N A H E I M W H I T T I E R E L M O N T E W E S T C O V I N A R A N C H O PA LO S V E R D E S LO N G B E A C H R E D O N D O B E A C H H U N T I N G TO N B E A C H C O S TA M E S A I N G L E - W O O D E A S T L .
