This splendidly opulent house of worship is the spiritual hub of the local Greek Orthodox community and is as rich and epic as a giant’s treasure chest. Financed by the Skouras brothers, Greek immigrants who made it big in Hollywood as studio heads, they hired set designers to swathe the main nave with biblical-themed murals. It’s illuminated by muted light streaming through stained-glass windows and emanating from the Bohemian-crystal chandelier.
A visit here is easily combined with a plate of gyro at Papa Cristo’s.
