九曲花街,三藩市 - Lombart Street,San Francisco

九曲花街被美誉为“世界上最弯的街道”,东西方向,单向行驶 。它一共有八个急弯,为了要减低汽车行驶时的冲力,行驶速度为8km/h (5mph)而且路面铺上砖块来增加摩擦力,以确保司机的安全。

.
Lombart Street is crowned " The Crookedest Street in the World" .It is an east-west ,one-way street. It has 8 hairpin turns.The speed limit is 5 mph (8km/h). The Powell-Hyde cable car line stops at the top of this block.


Powell Hyde 的缆车站也以这路的最上端为终点。过了这条马路,再走下去,就是下面这张照片。 ( After crossing this road , that's the view you can see here ).

这是Tony Bennett 唱的“ I Left My Heart In San Francisco ”(我把我的心留在三藩市)歌词:
The loveliness of Paris
Seems somehow sadly gay
The glory that was Rome
Is of another day
I've been terribly alone
And forgotten in Manhattan
I'm going home to my city by the bay.
.
.
I left my heart in San Francisco
High on a hill, it calls to me.
To be where little cable cars Climb halfway to the stars!
The morning fog may chill the air I don't care!
My love waits there in San Francisco Above the blue and windy sea .
When I come home to you, San Francisco,
Your golden sun will shine for me!
