Driving down Lombard Street is a must when visiting San Francisco

Driving Lombard Street in San Francisco had always been on my bucket list. Lombard Street is one of the most famous in the world with its steep and curvy bends. Located just five blocks from the Fisherman’s Wharf, in the heart of San Francisco, up a series of steep hills, is the famed Lombard Street, which is often dubbed the "crookedest street in the world."
At an elevation of 325’, Lombard Street takes you through 8 very steep and curvy switchbacks at a 27% grade, which means, for every 100 feet you travel, the street drops 27 feet.
This is just a short video to show you this extraordinary road, one of the "crookedest street in the world"

I walked down Lombard Street with my dad, my classmates and my 3rd Grade teacher on the City Tour field trip that we took at my former elementary school 25 years ago in May 1998. According to my streets book, Lombard Street is named after a street located in Philadelphia, PA as surveyed by Jasper O'Farrell. It was based on The Lombardis who were well-known for their bizarre beards.

The landscaping does a LOT to enhance the experience too. If I lived there I would always set my parking brake and likely carry wheel chocks too. I think an electronic garage door opener is a requirement.

Glad you enjoyed it. We actually drove right up Lombard Street off of Van Ness street. There is a park on the right hand side (George Sterling Park). I don't know if we got lucky, but there were several spots to park. FYI, it's very steep. From there you walk about half a block to Hyde Street, which is the steepest part of the switchback area. You may want to walk to the bottom and take photos from the other direction as well. After you walk it and get some photos, get back in your car and drive down. Enjoy. Thanks for watching. Hope you'll check out some of my other videos. I have one on the best places to see the Golden Gate Bridge as well: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rPHIkCKL_rg.html Cheers, Mike
