Visiting San Francisco
![]() Bay Bridge © RJ Best |
When you come to a city that had its adolescence during the Gold Rush, be prepared to find residual pioneer spirit and a penchant for innovation. From Chinatown to North Beach to the Castro to the Mission District, San Francisco's charm is based in its diversity and respect for all lifestyles and cultures. Some of the greatest cuisine in the world is served in San Francisco restaurants, and the eclectic shopping keeps people coming back for more. Museum shows and musical performances are permanent yet ever-changing facts of life in San Francisco. Street fairs and cultural events happen with regular frequency. Add the romantic fog, ideal climate and dramatic landscapes, and you begin to understand why everyone falls in love with the City by the Bay.

Though there's plenty to see, the relatively small size of San Francisco
allows any visitor to get around without great complication. Despite the
impressive hills, walking is often the best way to explore this exciting
city. The views from the tops of those hills offer unforgettable panoramic
memories you'll long remember. If you prefer not to walk, you can still
tour the city easily. What other city offers buses, cable cars, streetcars,
electric buses, and underground railways to make sure you get where you're
going? And if none of these options suits you, cars and taxis are always
at your disposal.
