- Rodeo Drive
The world-renowned Rodeo Drive is one of the most luxurious shopping streets in the city. This 3.2 km long drive may be your perfect place to initiate your exploration of the place. The street came into existence back in 1906 when Burton E. Green and some other investors purchased the property, which is now known as the ‘Beverly Hills’, with plans to launch this drive. With designer boutiques from Gucci to Louis Vuitton, the street may be counted as one of the most expensive places to suit every individual’s taste.
Even though the place is considered a shopping spree, just the sheer pleasure of experiencing one of a kind, i.e. window shopping, is an exquisite experience that may be used to define the essence of the luxury Beverly Hills beholds.

- Beverly Gardens Park
This linear 1.9-mile park is another place featuring the magnificent beauty of the place that attracts tourists like a magnet. The green lush grounds expand from Wilshire Boulevard to North Doheny Drive along Santa Monica Boulevard. Beverly Gardens holds some of the most famous art sculptures and some notable special gardens, such as the Cactus Garden and the Rose Garden. Along with these spectacles, the Wilshire Electric Fountain and the Doheny Fountain add a cherry on top, which put on a serene display of showering crystal clear water for the public.
About a decade ago, the landmark was renovated on a special occasion as the city crossed its 100th anniversary. After its renovation, the park was brought back to its original glory and propelled into the 21st century.
