Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park is hidden behind tall buildings located on Wilshire Boulevard. You could easily drive right past the park without even realizing it was there. Even though the cemetery is tiny, it is very beautiful. It is a final resting point to some of the most famous stars in Hollywood, including Marilyn Monroe, Donna Reed, Dean Martin, Natalie Wood, Cornel Wilde and many others. If you choose to visit one Hollywood Cemetery, Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park is your best choice. It is a small, intimate and very well-kept park, where stars' graves are fairly easy to find. Marilyn Monroe's tomb is probably the easiest to find because it is discolored from a lot of fans, who have touched and kissed it.

Los Angeles is full of interesting and weird things. This building with eyes is located in West Hollywood in the back parking lot of Whole Foods. I couldn't figure out why they are there, but after I got a ticket for unpaid parking I decided to interpret it as "I am watching you" ;)

Another nice green space in Beverly Hills is Beverly Canon Gardens. As opposed to Greysone Mansion Park, which is very hard to find, Beverly Canon Gardens is a very easily accessible area. You can find public outdoor dining areas, water features, landscaped gardens and public colonnaded walkways just a minute away from the famous Rodeo Drive.

It's very hard to imagine that in the heart of Beverly Hills you can find a Los Angeles copy of Versailles. Although this is an exaggerated comparison, the place is very much worth seeing. The Greystone Mansion Park is quite hard to find and that is what makes it so beautiful and intimidating. Although it has been used in a lot of film productions, it is still a very intimate public park, which I like to visit when I need to feel like a real lady of the 19th century or just escape the hectic life of Los Angeles.
