What to expect

This self-guided tour of Los Angeles filming locations is totally flexible, so you get to choose which spots you want to see most and go right to them!

Visit the site where Joe Mantell uttered the famous words “Forget it Jake, it’s Chinatown” in Roman Polanski’s all-time classic, Chinatown. Want to see a courthouse from The Dark Knight Rises, a police station from Blade Runner, and a bank from Catch Me if You Can? Lucky for you, they’re all in the same building: Union Station.

If old-timey sci-fi is more your speed, check out the LA City Hall, featured in War of the Worlds and The Adventures of Superman. Or check out the Bradbury Building, where the climactic final showdown takes place in Blade Runner.

Up next is the spot where Doc Oc wreaked havoc in Spiderman 2 and Jim Carrey was robbed in The Mask. Fans of the supernatural can’t miss the Cicada Club, the setting of a season of American Horror Story, and the Millenium Biltmore, where the Ghostbusters catch their first ghost.

Take a step back in time at the Music Box Steps, then head to The Virgil for a more contemporary musical landmark. This was where Lady Gaga first performed in the recent remake of A Star Is Born!

Finally, pay a visit to Griffith Observatory, a filming site for movies like Rebel Without a Cause and La La Land that also offers the best views of Los Angeles anyone could ask for. From here, you’ll be able to get close to the famous Hollywood sign and see the whole city sparkling below.
