Beehive

Salt Lake nickname

A beehive is a structure where bees live and store honey, either a natural formation like a hollow tree or a box designed by beekeepers.

The distinctive domed shape of traditional woven hives gives its name to the beehive hairstyle, a tall rounded updo popular in the 1960s.

Anything resembling the busy activity of a bee colony may be called a beehive: The office was a beehive of activity before the deadline.
