Fancy street
The street on which not to miss two people, streamers without a straight section, avenue filled with "pirate" brands, the ancient road to the Egyptian pyramids. In our selection - the most unusual street, which is worth walking tour.
The most winding street in the world
This street in San Francisco, is more appropriate for training driving skills in driving than for normal traffic. But no, paved with red brick Lombard Street is always quite lively and full of cars. Logically explain this conglomeration turns quite difficult (unless an attempt to smooth over a fairly steep slope), most likely due to the street there was a crazy fantasy landscape designer, who made way similar to an alpine slide. It should be noted that there is always full of tourists with cameras, so that the efforts were not in vain. Now the city government of San Francisco are working to solve traffic problems in Lombard Street, so maybe in a few years the street will lose its main attractions.
Blue Street
In the northern part of Morocco is the town of Chefchaouen, which is known worldwide not only monuments or unusual landscape. Popularity among tourists find it because of its unusual color of the houses on a street. Buildings, painted in bright turquoise color, visually merge with the sky and make a strong impression on tourists. Blue house began to appear in the thirties of the last century thanks to Jewish refugees. They repainted their homes in the color of the sky, symbolizing heaven and union with God. The root idea of the population with such bright houses like another reason that the bright blue color supposedly repels mosquitoes, because they continued this strange tradition.
"Pirate" street
Walk on the street piracy in the Chinese city of Wuxi, perhaps, be called the most fun out of our collection. Here you will see no sea wolves, and stolen brands known western companies that are slightly modified form decorate signs local shops. There is a fake and Starbucks, and non-branded store Apple, and several fast food restaurants known networks. Walk down the street, treat signs and recognize which brand was attacked enterprising Chinese in the next little shops - occupation useless but incredibly fun and exciting. However, nothing to buy and even touch will not work here. The fact that such a move - do not attempt to mimic local entrepreneurs recognizable names, but an attempt to sellers of retail space to show potential customers how they can look stylish outlets. Unfortunately, the idea was not justified and is popular on the Internet unless.
Street crab
Spreuerhofstraße Street - the narrowest in the world. It is so narrow that it can move only sideways, and it is not very convenient if you do not crab. At its narrowest point width it is only about 30 centimeters, which can become an insurmountable obstacle for fat people. Status streets tiny gap between the houses was in 1820, a little less than a century after its formation. Unfortunately, walk down the street-record holder (it entered the Guinness World Records) is not possible due to an emergency condition of a house. Because of the narrow space of restoration rather difficult, but the city authorities are looking for a way out of the situation, trying to keep this tourist magnet.
The oldest street in the world
Road of Giza in Cairo, about four and a half thousand years. It was formed during the construction of the pyramids, when the workers were pulling stones from the quarry to the construction site. Given that Giza is now part of Cairo, this road is in the city limits and, therefore, may well be called the street. Its length is about twelve miles, and it ends at the banks of the Nile. Interestingly, the famous street was only in the nineties of the twentieth century, when it localized representatives of Guinness World Records, and then poured in crowds. Prior to this, the oldest road did not seem to someone special and something remarkable.
