Picture Description:

Photo Title: Lombard Street: A scenic picture taken of the famous Lombard Street which is located in downtown San Francisco, California. Lombard Street has eight sharp turns (or switchbacks) that have earned the street the distinction of being the most crooked (winding) street in the United States. One of San Francisco's car lines stops at the top of this block. The crooked section of the street is reserved for one way traffic traveling east (downhill), and is paved with bricks. The section was built in 1923 to accommodate the steepness of the slope of the hill. The road is surrounded with beautiful shrubs and flowers and stunning bay views that draw in tourists day after day. From the top of the hill you will see amazing views of the bay such as Telegraph Hill and North Beach.
