If you’ve always wondered what it’s like to “walk a crooked mile,” take a stroll along Lombard Street in Russian Hill! Of course, this landmark street isn’t a mile long – it’s only 600 feet – but it’s impressive nonetheless. This popular tourist destination offers amazing views, but it isn’t the only great thing about living in Russian Hill. From the base and Ghirardelli Square to the views from the top of Lombard Street, and from the famous Hyde Street cable car to Russian Hill Park, it’s easy to see why Russian Hill is one of San Francisco’s favorite neighborhoods.

If you don’t mind the steep grade, Russian Hill is within walking distance to Chinatown, North Beach, Pacific Heights, and the Marina. The views from the neighborhood are amazing, from the bay to Alcatraz. Other nearby destinations include Fisherman’s Warf, the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, and the San Francisco Art Institute.
