点评:It’s many years since I visited Lincoln but being back in the city to try its best pubs it was an opportunity to reacquaint myself with this famous cobbled street and it was just as good as I remember it.
But the clue is in the name, the gradient is very steep. I prefer to climb it as it is actually quite difficult to injure yourself when walking up hill, whereas gravity may not be your friend when descending, but suffice to say it may not be the best option if you are not good on your pins and it is certainly not wheelchair or mobility scooter friendly. An option may be to catch a bus up to the Priory Gate side of the Cathedral where it is flatter.
Is it worth the effort? Yes most definitely as you will be rewarded with some excellent architecture, some dating from the 12th Century, interesting artisan shops and independent coffee shops as well as some decent pubs and restaurants. And at the top it does obviously lead onto the Bailgate and the Cathedral quarter where the gradient flattens out.
I cannot comment on the shopping options but the Wig and Mitre is a decent pub restaurant on the hill, as is the Duke William Hotel if you make it to the top end of the Bailgate. In fact for those that like an ale, the initial section of the Bailgate at the top of the hill provides some of the best options in Lincoln. For those who like craft ale then BeerHeadz is just off the Bailgate to the right down Eastgate, and probably the best ale house in town, the Strugglers, can be found a short 4 minute walk down Westgate.

但线索就在名字里,坡度非常陡峭。我更喜欢爬上去,因为上山时实际上很难受伤,而下山时重力可能不是你的朋友,但可以说,如果你的脚不稳,这可能不是最好的选择,而且它肯定不适合轮椅或电动代步车。一种选择可能是乘坐公共汽车到大教堂修道院门那边,那里的地势比较平坦。
值得付出努力吗?是的,绝对值得,因为你会得到一些优秀的建筑,一些可以追溯到 12 世纪的建筑,有趣的手工艺品店和独立的咖啡馆,以及一些不错的酒吧和餐馆。在山顶,它显然通向 Bailgate 和大教堂区,那里的坡度变平了。
我无法评论购物选择,但山上的 Wig and Mitre 是一家不错的酒吧餐厅,如果你到达 Bailgate 的顶端,Duke William Hotel 也不错。事实上,对于那些喜欢啤酒的人来说,山顶的 Bailgate 的起始部分提供了林肯最好的选择。对于那些喜欢精酿啤酒的人来说,BeerHeadz 就在 Bailgate 旁边,就在 Eastgate 的右下方,而 Strugglers 可能是镇上最好的啤酒屋,沿着 Westgate 步行 4 分钟即可找到。
