There is one block of Lombard Street that consists of seven hairpin turns, one after the other. What you can’t see from the map or satellite view is that the street is also on a steep incline.

Lombard Street (and its curves) was featured in what I consider to be one of the funniest movie chase scenes of all time at the end of the movie “What’s Up Doc?”
