Worst Place to walk on the streets - SF


Cable car ride!

If you've never been to San Francisco, you'll have expected it to be pretty much like any other city but you are wrong. The whole city is built in a valley. Roads can be as steep as 45 degrees. So you either take a transport to go uphill or simply strain your knees.

I was there twice and it is a beautiful place to walk around. But do remember which streets are steeply sloped and which is not. Else you will end up like me. Huffing and puffing just to reach the top of the street.

What can make it easier for you to get around this city is to get an unlimited one to three day pass for cable car. It's a different experience and you sure won't want to miss it when you are in San Francisco.

Have fun walking. And plan your route!!
