Steep Hill
Najboljši čas za obisk
Visit on a weekday morning in spring or autumn when the street is quietest and the low sun casts long shadows across the cobblestones. Avoid summer weekends when cruise ship crowds and day trippers make the narrow pavement feel claustrophobic.
Nasveti za proračun
Walking the street itself costs nothing. Several of the independent shops and tearooms offer window displays worth a slow browse, but skip the touristy souvenir shops halfway up where prices are marked up 30 percent.
Priporočeno za
Photography enthusiasts, History lovers, Solo travelers seeking character, Couples on a relaxed day out

O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: S strmino 1 proti 7 (približno 14,5 stopinje) ta srednjeveška prometnica povezuje zgornji del stolničnega okrožja s spodnjim delom mestnega središča. Ulica je dobila ime po silnem fizičnem naporu, potrebnem za vzpon po njej, in lokalno izročilo pravi, da so nekoč plačali peni tistemu, ki je lahko stekel navzgor z vrečo premoga.
Poudarki: Poiščite majhne judovske hiše iz 12. stoletja, stisnjene med trgovinami, njihova vrata so nizko pri tleh, okna pa komaj meter visoka. Na vrhu se ustavite pred srednjeveško cehovsko hišo iz 13. stoletja, kjer si lahko še vedno ogledate originalne železne obroče, ki so pred sto leti služili za privezovanje konj.
Notranji nasveti
- Wear flat grippy shoes, the 12th-century cobbles are polished smooth by millions of feet and get dangerously slippery when damp.
- Skip the main route up and take the parallel 'Vicar's Court' lane for a quieter climb with fewer tourists and better photo angles of the cathedral.
- Stop at the halfway point bench outside the antique bookshop for the best view of the street's curve stretching both up and down.
- Visit just before a rain shower, the wet cobblestones reflect the streetlights and shop windows like a medieval mirror.
