Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park and Mortuary

Forget Forest Lawn (and Hollywood Forever). Some of the biggest A-listers are buried in the relatively tiny Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park. Visit and pay your respects to the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Truman Capote, Natalie Wood, Roy Orbison, Jack Lemmon...

A small, peaceful cemetery a block away from busy Wilshire Blvd but you wouldn't know it. Look for Truman Capote, Merv Griffin (whose headstone says "I will not be right back after this message"), Farrah Fawcett, Eva Gabor, and many more, but the main attraction for most tourists is Marilyn Monroe. Just do a lap around the park and look for the lipstick-stained pink crypt. Also, the one to the left of hers is owned by Hugh Hefner. The two never met, but she was Playboy's first covergirl and centerfold.
