Twin peaks - San Fransisco

These two unique and uninhabited hills, almost 1,000ft/300m high, are not in fact the highest of San Fransisco's 43 hills, a distinction belonging to Mount Davidson which is some 33ft/10m higher. However, they are easier to get to (No. 37 bus) and offer what is perhaps the finest views out over the city and the bay (there are frequent mists from the Pacific). Twin Peaks are the only hills in San Fransisco not to have been built over and remaining in their original state. From them you can look down over San Fransisco and the bay; there is nowhere better than this from which to appreciate the vastness of this impressive city. The Spaniards called the twin peaks "Los pechos de la Chola" (i.e. the Breasts of the Indian Maiden).
