Russian Hill & Nob Hill Secrets
Getting There
Nob Hill stands between Down-
town and Chinatown; Russian Hill
abuts Fisherman's Wharf and
North Beach.
Cloud nine can't compare to the upper reaches of
Nob Hill and Russian Hill, where hilltop gardens,
literary landmarks and divine views await discovery
up flower-lined stairway walks. If the climb and the
sights don't leave you completely weak in the knees,
try staggering back downhill after a couple of Nob
Hill cocktails. Now you understand why San Fran-
cisco invented cable cars.
Cable car
California St,
Powell-Hyde and Powell-Mason
cable cars serve the steep streets.
