The Summer of Love in 1967. That year marked a huge influx of hippies and other freethinkers to the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood. The culture of acceptance and love present was the perfect stage for cannabis consumption. Many would gather in Golden Gate Park to get high and come together as a community in an area that became known as Hippie Hill.

  • aka "Hippy Hill" due to the hippies and street rats who bang drums, smoke pot and drink heavily, often letting their pit bulls bit people on the butt.
  • yeah, it's a great place to go and hang out. Good place to buy a "bag", too. I have never, ever felt threatened or scared while hanging out here. And I have certainly never been bit on the but by a dog. Maybe the above poster smelled too good to resist...

  • I have been here. I was OVERWHELMED. My ears almost broke with this, could've found those idk... maybe instrumentals? Anyways, the general place is like East of "Hippie Hill".
