The 16th Avenue Steps, San Francisco, California

The 16th Avenue Steps, San Francisco, California.

At the corner of Moraga Street and 16th Avenue, in the Golden Gate Heights neighborhood of San Fran is the base of the most beautiful staircase in this city. A brightly-tiled panel covers the front of each of the 163 steps, and as the stairs stretch up the hill toward 15th Avenue, the individual panels blend together to form a massive, mosaic picture. Stunning in its entirety, yet intricate and detailed enough to be captivating when viewed up close. More beautiful when seen in person.
