Mulholland Drive is the winding ridge-top road across the Santa Monica Mountains, named for water engineer William Mulholland, with sweeping views of the San Fernando Valley on one side and the Los Angeles Basin on the other. It passes overlooks that include the Hollywood Bowl Overlook and Fryman Canyon, plus celebrity estates, and it appears in many films, including David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive.
