The Yamashiro Historic District is located on Sycamore Avenue in the Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles, California, United States.

The villa that forms the district's centerpiece was constructed from 1911 to 1914 by artisans and craftsmen from Japan for the German-American brothers Charles L. Bernheimer (July 18, 1864 – July 1, 1944) and Adolph L. Bernheimer (October 6, 1866 – March 18, 1944)
to house their collection of Japanese art and valuable items.
The establishment was called the Yamashiro Hollywood, but can also be known as the Bernheimer Villa and Oriental Gardens.
As the villa was located on top of a hill, it was called a yamashiro, a Japanese word that in this case means "mountain castle" (山城).
The district consists of the villa, several smaller buildings (of which a number no longer exist), and landscaped gardens.
The area was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.

Today, the villa houses an Asian restaurant.
