它不是什么名胜古迹,只是一条居民区旁边的街道,但由于它的坡度很陡,又弯曲得很厉害,然后旁边的花坛也还挺好看,所以变成了游客打卡的热门地点。

它现在常被称为“世界上最弯曲的街道”。

Lombard Street is an east–west street in San Francisco, California that is famous for a steep, one-block section with eight hairpin turns. Stretching from The Presidio east to The Embarcadero (with a gap on Telegraph Hill), most of the street's western segment is a major thoroughfare designated as part of U.S. Route 101. The famous one-block section, claimed to be "the crookedest street in the world", is located along the eastern segment in the Russian Hill neighborhood. It is a major tourist attraction, receiving around two million visitors per year and up to 17,000 per day on busy summer weekends.
