Beverly Hills Walking Tour: "A Step Back in History"
Beverly Hills, CA
Before it was known as Beverly Hills, the city offered a wealth of natural resources including oil and water, a particularly precious commodity in Southern California at the time. The city came to be known as Beverly Hills in the early 1900s and was incorporated in 1914 – a turning point as development of The Beverly Hills Hotel and other buildings brought a new crowd to the city. Movie industry types began to make this their home and Beverly Hills developed a reputation for glamour and luxury that still holds true today.
