San Francisco

“IN 1906, SAN FRANCISCO WAS ALMOST DESTROYED BY A MASSIVE 7.8-8.3 EARTHQUAKE.“

Within 30 hours, a firestorm erupted, causing significant destruction. Today, San Francisco is a strong and proud city that covers just 46.9 square miles of land. When visiting this city, you can enjoy an eclectic blend of architecture, ride cable cars, and dine on fresh seafood at Fisherman’s Wharf or enjoy a succulent meal at any one of the more than 3,500 restaurants. San Francisco has an amazing Chinatown district and is home to the infamous Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary.

Of course, your trip would not be complete without a visit to the beautiful Golden Gate Bridge and a drive down Lombard Street, which winds tightly for a full 12 blocks. If preferred, you can browse through secondhand shops on Haight Street, sip on java in a coffee shop, tour a Victorian Mansion, attend a Giant’s ballgame, or stroll along Ocean Beach. San Francisco also boasts fine art galleries and museums, vibrant nightclubs, and, for something more discerning, the San Francisco Symphony, Opera, and Ballet.
