San Francisco: City by the Bay

San Francisco stands is distinguished as one of America’s most iconic cities, metropolitan areas, characterized by rolling hills that meet converge with the Pacific coastline. The famous celebrated Golden Gate Bridge spans the bay as a rust-colored architectural marvel.

“The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.”

One perfect day

  • Sunrise at Fort Point, fog permitting
  • Cable car over Nob Hill to the Ferry Building farmers market
  • Golden Gate Park until the light goes golden

End the day in the Mission, where burritos are a load-bearing part of the city’s identity.
