"A beautiful drive"

Finally, an MLK street done right! It's a beautiful tribute to a great leader and winds in to JFK street through a scenic park. This is a great street to use to check out the park activities and plan out where you will enjoy the day in the great outdoors. But, there is no parking that I could find.

"a scenic road in Golden Gate Park"

I used to play soccer at the field here many years ago. It is probably one of the streets that you would get lost on extremely easily. Well all the roads in Golden Gate Park are easy to get lost in anyways. A very beautiful scenic road. Very good for taking jogs or riding bikes. It runs by many places in Golden gate park. There is the musem, county fair building, which has many public events, and many lakes like stow lake. These lakes had many activities. You can rent paddle boats or row boats, you can feed the ducks, and rent bicycles, tricycles, and other vehicles.

"Calm street to take around Golden Gate Park."

Martin Luther King Jr. Drive runs from the west side of golden gate park eastward to Bowling Green Drive, also located in the park. It runs by multiple lakes which include stow lake, famous for its birds and paddle or row boat renting. Part of this street is closed every Sunday and holidays for pedestrians that want to spend the day in the park without traffic. On these days you will find many people biking, roller skating, running, etc, all over the park. This street also runs by the Polo fields where many events are held. There is no places to live on this street but I would recommend it for anyone to walk or drive along it.
