The Strip is a fashionista's dream by day and a nightlife hub by night. It's the home of famed standup club the Comedy Store, along with live music Meccas The Whisky and The Roxy, plus iconic, boutique hotels and beckoning bars and rooftop pools.

The Boulevard is famed as being representative of the classic Hollywood lifestyle and has even been the subject of famous films, not the least of which is its namesake film. In the 1980s, its famed Sunset Strip was the home of the burgeoning rock and metal scene, and it's still known as a hub of Hollywood nightlife.

Located just east of Downtown, the aptly named Highland Park is known for its spectacular views of the city skyline, sunsets and sunrises. Dawn to dusk, 100 E. New York St., (317) 327-7275, indy.gov.

Sunset Boulevard stretches from the Pacific Coast Highway in Pacific Palisades east to Figueroa Street in downtown Los Angeles. The entire length of the fabled roadway is 27.5 miles. But only 1.6 miles of this legendary road is known as “the Sunset Strip.”
