Lombard Street

Known as the "Crookedest Street in the World," Lombard Street features a famously steep, single-block section with eight sharp hairpin turns framed by vibrant flowerbeds. Visitors can drive carefully down the brick-paved segment or walk along the flanked stairways for stunning views of San Francisco, including Coit Tower and the bay. Located in the picturesque Russian Hill neighborhood, it remains one of the city's most iconic and photographed attractions.
