"More than just a semi circle?"

Palace Drive is not all that special as far as roads are concerned. What is special however is the namesake that it partially encloses.

The San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts was originally built for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition. It's a worthy destination for any history buff, movie afficionado (There have been many notable movies that have used this location. My wife and I are guilty of "dancing like fairies of the night" here on occasion. All you Mike Myers fans will know exactly what I'm talking about) or anybody who just wants to see some really amazing architecture. For the science buffs, there's the Exploratorium - an insanely cool interactive science museum. Take the kids, but I dare you not to get involved as well.

That said, you'll probably want to park on Palace Drive when you visit there. That has to count for a few extra points ;) Right?
