Around a trip there are always interesting things, curiosities and things that make your trip more fun and original. In order to get a really special trip you have to organize it very well to be able to visit really spectacular places but also others that are very curious and that in many occasions do not appear in the travel guides. Every year we know lists with a lot of curiosities, such as which are the most visited places, which city is the friendliest with its tourists or, as in this case, which are the strangest streets.
Today I would like to talk to you about that, about the strangest streets in the world and that they have achieved that honor for one reason or another. Here I leave you with a few.
Germany
- In the German city of Reutligen is the street narrower of the world, a street that dates back to the 18th century and is 31 centimeters wide, without a doubt a place where only kittens and other animals will be able to climb since it is very difficult for a person to pass through.
England
- One of the narrowest is also Parliament Street, in Exter (England), which dates from the 14th century and is only 64 centimeters wide, very narrow but certainly much looser than the previous one.
U.S
- In Holbroock, a city in Arizona (United States), we find the street Bucket of blood, which in Spanish means «blood cube», I don't know if I would like to live in a place called that. In the United States we find other very strange names for streets such as Zzyzx Street in California or the Church Gay (Gay Church Street) in Arkansas.
- As for steep streets, the United States takes the cake with Lombard Street, in San Francisco, a city famous among other things for having the steepest streets of the world. Baldwin Street in New Zealand is one of the most vertiginous in the world.
Scotland
- Finally I will tell you about Ebenecer Place Street, in Wick (Scotland), famous for being the world's shortest since it is only 2.06 meters long.
