  1. San Francisco: The Seductress Of The California Coast

  2. There’s something magical about San Francisco that makes visitors want to leave their hearts in this city by the bay. Perhaps it’s the aroma of fresh-baked sourdough bread infused with ocean breezes that entice visitors or perhaps it’s the morning fog moving in from the bay that gives the city a mystical air. Whatever the reason, it’s easy for visitors to fall in love with this historic city.

  3. San Francisco is filled with so many things to see and do; it can take weeks, months or even years to take everything in. Since most visitors won’t have this luxury of unlimited time, they’ll need to pick carefully and choose from this smorgasbord of offerings. Visiting San Francisco without riding a cable car is like visiting Paris and ignoring the Eiffel Tower; it can’t be done. The two routes that are most popular with visitors run from Union Square to near Fisherman’s Wharf: Powell-Mason, which ends at Fishermen’s Wharf, and Powell-Hyde, which ends at Ghirardelli Square, a short walk from Fisherman’s Wharf. The Powell-Hyde line stops at Lombard Street, nicknamed the “world’s most crooked street.”

  4. Fisherman’s Wharf is one of the city’s top tourist destinations. Still a working fishing wharf, it’s also home to numerous seafood restaurants and clam chowder stands. This is a good place to buy some sourdough bread to eat with a grab-and-go shrimp cocktail or catch a ferry to Alcatraz Island. Fisherman’s Wharf blends into Pier 39, where visitors can watch sea lions do what they do best: bark, sleep and play.

  5. Visitors traveling north on Highway 101 will cross the Golden Gate Bridge, another San Francisco landmark. Considered an engineering marvel when it was built in the 20th century, this three-mile long suspension bridge crosses the channel linking San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. Instead of whizzing over the bridge in a car, visitors can leisurely stroll or bike across since it has sidewalks on both sides.

  6. Don’t have time for a trip to Chinatown? San Francisco’s Chinatown makes a good substitute. It’s the largest Chinatown outside of Asia and the oldest Chinatown in North America. Fortune cookies, served in the United States but not in China, were said to be invented here in the late 19th century. In Chinatown, one can visit a fortune cookie factory to see how this after-dinner treat is made. Hungry visitors will want to dine on authentic Chinese meal' the city's Chinese citizens have been cooking up tasty meals since they landed in San Francisco in 1848. As visitors quickly learn, it’s easy to leave your heart in San Francisco.
