Lombard Street
San Francisco, United States
Known for its eight sharp turns, Lombard Street's 'crookedest' block was designed in 1922 to make the steep grade safe for cars. Winding through hydrangea-adorned gardens, it draws adventurous drivers and pedestrians alike, despite the one-block challenge.
