Beverly Hills: Los Angeles
built 268 days ago
Beverly Hills [1] is an enclaved city in Los Angeles County in Southern California, surrounded almost entirely by Los Angeles. Since the 1950's Beverly Hills has marketed itself as a high-end shopping paradise and home of the rich and famous, which still rings true today – its reputation has even been the basis of a few popular TV shows such as The Beverly Hillbillies and Beverly Hills, 90210. Santa Monica Boulevard bisects the city, with most of the businesses to the south, and the north being primarily residential. Most visitors come to shop or dream of shopping, or to try and hunt down their favorite celebrities' homes.
