Lombard Street, USA
From series “Top 13 Most Fantastic and Colorful Streets and Quarters”
One of the most famous streets in the world, Lombard Street is located in San Francisco. This street is officially considered the most crooked place in the world. It features a complicated zigzag shape. This unusual form of the street, where riding vehicles is allowed, is not accidental. The street goes down the hill, so to make this stretch of road safer for motorists, it was decided to cut eight sharp turns.
The zigzag street is decorated with chic flower beds and floral installations. Both sides of the street have walkways, stairs, and benches for pedestrians. Lombard Street is one of the favorite attractions among tourists, as there they can make a lot of spectacular pictures. Landscape decoration changes several times a year, so Lombard Street always looks special.
