Mulholland Drive Scenic Overlooks - Los Angeles, CA

April 17, 2017

This is a great way to view LA city, surrounding environment and far beyond from high above all along the drive.

Mulholland Scenic Parkway and Corridor is one of the most famous thoroughfares in the country. Constructed in 1924, twenty four-mile Mulholland Drive in the City of Los Angeles was envisioned by the famous Water Bureau Chief and City Engineer, William D. Mulholland, as a scenic road that would transport city dwellers to the mountains and beaches. The winding route starts west of the 101 Freeway in Hollywood, and offers panoramic city, mountain and ocean views along with a history of LA city development and conservation/preservation of water, land and nature.

This is a must do drive, sightseeing or hike at least once if you live in LA or are a visitor to discover its scenic beauty of LA and history behind how the city of Angels came about what it is for today. It owes much respect and honor to those forerunners who had a vision for the city of Angels in the past, present and the future.
