Harry Bosch’s Los Angeles – The Tour

Have you seen the Amazon Original Series, Bosch? It’s based on a series of books by Michael Connelly, and it’s about to start it’s fourth season. Harry Bosch is a Los Angeles Homicide Detective with the Hollywood Division so the books and television show feature much of Los Angeles – you can find maps and lists of addresses for the first few seasons of the show online. The maps and instructions are easy to follow.

My parents love the books and when they visited early this spring, I thought it would be fun to show them the sites or point them out as we were wandering around.

My Favorite Places on the Bosch Tour

We added the tour items into other branches of the “parts of LA” bits of the wandering so we didn’t have one day that was based on the books, we spread the site seeing throughout their entire trip. My favorite spots on the tour are:

  • The Hollywood Sign – We took pictures from Lake Hollywood Park, which sits directly below the sign
  • Griffith Park – We went up to the observatory and looked around, then took a quick hike down the hill
  • The Hollywood Bowl – Hubs and I used to live half a mile away so we were able to tell tons of stories about the neighborhood as we went.

Much of Downtown LA is featured in the book series, like city hall and the police station. We showed those locations off in one day when we showed the family around our current neighborhood. Mom and Dad were delighted to see the sights around town. I’ll probably post more of our adventures later this month or next. Below is a shot of Angel’s Flight with my Mom in the corner. 🙂

Mom and Angel’s Flight entrance. Short trip and worth the 50 cents #tourists #DTLA #Bosch
