Steep Hill
Najbolje vreme za posetu
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.
Saveti za budžet
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.
Preporučeno za
Photography enthusiasts, History lovers, Solo travelers seeking character, Couples on a relaxed day out

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Sa nagibom od 1:7 (oko 14,5 stepeni), ova srednjovekovna ulica povezuje gornji kvart katedrale sa donjim gradskim centrom. Ulica je dobila ime po ogromnom fizičkom naporu potrebnom za penjanje, a lokalna tradicija kaže da se nekad plaćao peni onima koji su mogli da trče uzbrdo noseći vreću uglja.
Istaknuto: Potražite male jevrejske kuće iz 12. veka skrivene između prodavnica, sa niskim ulazima i prozorima visine jedva jednog metra. Na vrhu, zastanite ispred srednjovekovne esnafske zgrade iz 13. veka gde i dalje možete videti originalne gvozdene prstenove korišćene za vezivanje konja pre više stotina godina.
Insajderski saveti
- 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.
