How Golden Age Hollywood inspired our favourite holiday spots

  • Whether it is Peter Fonda kicking up dust on a Harley in the Arizona desert, Anita Ekberg bathing nymph-like in the spray of the Trevi Fountain, or Julie Andrews twirling and belting her heart out in the Austrian Alps, Golden Age Hollywood changed how we go on holiday: catapulting destinations onto the global stage, inspiring generations to go there, and forever defining what they hoped to find when they arrived.
