This hill is famous for its cable cars (a cable car is a public transportation that is propelled by a continuously moving cable and stop and start by gripping or releasing the cable). Cable cars were designed for hills that horses couldn’t climb, and from the top of Nob Hill, you get a nice view of the entire city, including the bay and the Golden Gate Bridge.

Four railways magnates, known as “The Big Four”, built their mansions on the top of Nob Hill, where millionaires live today. Nob Hill holds the city’s luxury hotel: the Huntington Hotel, the Mark Hopkins Intercontinental, the Stanford Court Hotel, the Fairmont Hotel, the Ritz Carlton and spectacular Grace Cathedral. Nob Hill is definitely worth a visit to walk around Huntington Park, attend a Sunday service at the Cathedral, or admire The Fairmont’s spectacular lobby.
