In the game
The famous zigzag block is reproduced with its tight bends.
History in brief
The eight hairpin bends were added in 1922 to make the steep slope safe for cars. The flowerbeds came later.
The place today
Walk the steps on either side; cars are allowed but traffic is often heavy.
Always check opening times, access rules and travel advice before you go.
