2. Head into Beverly Wilshire, A Four Seasons Hotel to admire the elegant lobby centered with fresh, fragrant flowers set beneath a shimmering crystalline chandelier, and get a peek inside this famous hotel where "Pretty Woman" was filmed.
3. Walk just north of Beverly Gardens Park into a quiet residential neighborhood and receive a surprise as you stumble upon a real-life Witch's House, a quintessential Hansel and Gretel house plucked straight out of a fairytale. This whimsical cottage was built on a film studio lot and relocated to its current location, where it is currently used as a private residence.
4. Take a seat inside the plush lobby of The Beverly Hills Hotel, a Five-Star property which is swathed in pink and surrounded by a forest of towering palms, and reflect on the surroundings of this storied hotel tinged with Hollywood glamour and whose clients have included legendary rock stars, celebrities and movie stars.
5. Drive into the tree-studded green hills to admire the unique architecture of Beverly Hills's famed mansions, such as the O'Neill House, whose facade was inspired by the surreal designs of famous architect Antoni Gaudi.
6. Pause on the 300 Block of Rodeo Drive to view the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed "Anderton Court," marked by the identifiable spiral ramp and triangular tower. This work of wonder, built in 1952, was the ground-breaking and famed architect's last building in the Los Angeles area.
7. Respectfully reflect on the events of September 11 at the 9/11 Memorial Garden. A structural beam recovered from Ground Zero is the centerpiece of this small garden.
8. Hotel hop! You don't have to be a guest to check out the impressive architecture and lobbies of Beverly Hills hotels, each with its own interior décor style from mid-century modern to Italian Renaissance. The city's hotels are some of the finest in the world, boasting one of the largest concentrations of Forbes Five Star and AAA Five Diamond properties in the United States.
