Carmel, California began forming in the late
1800’s on ground previously occupied
by the Ohlone Indians and the
Spanish who built the still-existing
Carmel Mission. After the San
Francisco earthquake of 1906, Carmel became a
haven for artists and bohemians
escaping the big city. The history
of the Carmel was formed by such
artists as Jack London, Robinson
Jeffers, Mary Austin, Upton
Sinclair, Henry Miller and Ansel
Adams. Carmel is still a city of artists
and writers and many of them show
their work in the over 90 art
galleries.
Carmel, California is still home to famous people
like Doris Day, whose pet friendly
hotel is one the town’s classic
inns. As mayor from 1986-88, Clint
Eastwood brought even more reknown
to the town of Carmel that is a vacation
favorite for thousands of visitors
every year. |
