The city of Tallahassee is sometimes referred to as the "City of Seven Hills." Tallahassee, like most of Florida, is rather flat, not hilly. An 1885 map of Tallahassee may provide a clue as to how this moniker came to be applied. This map illustrates downtown Tallahassee as being on a single hill. There were seven major arteries leading into Tallahassee and so to approach the city from any direction, one would have to travel up a hill. Thus, the "City of Seven Hills."
