The 11 Most Endearing Small Streets Worth Visiting

Everyone knows the famed Champs-Elysees in Paris or the Sunset Strip in Hollywood. But sometimes it is the smallest streets that live the largest. 

Across the world, there are streets that are both short in stature and stardom, but big on food, history, shopping, beauty and all are just waiting to be explored. 

For example, tucked away in Cairo, there is a little street that is a treasure trove of history unlike any other in the Islamic world. Or in Penang, Malaysia, where a short walk has you pass by stunning wall art and unbelievable street food.
