1. Golden Gate Park
9.0308 Reviews
based on 9.6k reviewsNo.2 of Best Things to Do in San Francisco
112***09This is a relatively large park near the Golden Gate Bridge, called Golden Gate Park. General tourists will not go to this attraction specially, because we are free to travel and can be more relaxed. The park environment design is unparalleled and worth checking in for sightseeing.San Francisco5.9km from downtownFree entry

泰迪小熊Came here on September 24, 2017.
San Francisco is close to the sea, and the Fisherman's Wharf here is very famous and has always been one of the most lively places in San Francisco. Today, it still retains traditional functions such as seafood markets and docks, and has added leisure and entertainment formats such as catering, entertainment, and shopping to meet tourists' needs for food, drink, and entertainment.
The iconic sign of Fisherman's Wharf is near Pier 45, and the most lively place is Pier 39.San Francisco3.8km from downtownFree entry
3. Lombard Street
8.41.6k Reviewsbased on 18.4k reviewsNo.10 of Best Things to Do in California泰迪小熊Came on September 24, 2017. This attraction is unique, beautiful and interesting, and definitely one of the must-see attractions to visit San Francisco. Jiuqu Flower Street is actually a section of Lombard Street, located between Hyde Street and Leavenworth Street. This section is a steep slope, but it is designed to be eight hairpin bends, and the road is full of flowers. If you need to shoot the effect of Jiuqu, you must stand at the low position of Leavenworth Street. Chinese people can drive by themselves in the western United States where San Francisco is located. If you will drive in San Francisco, you may wish to experience the feeling of driving through Jiuquhua Street.San Francisco3km from downtownFree entry
Nearby City4. Stanford University
6.7399 Reviews
based on 1.7k reviewsNo.1 of Best Things to Do in Santa Clara County泰迪小熊Came here on September 25, 2017.
As one of the top five universities in the United States, Stanford University must be a must-visit destination for California tourism!
As a tourist attraction alone, Stanford University is worth visiting. The entire school is very large, and the buildings of different periods are quite characteristic of the times. The scenery on campus is also beautiful, especially in sunny weather.
Go to Stanford Memorial Church to see the carefully designed Romanesque architecture and Byzantine-style decorations, and remember the good deeds of the Stanford family in educating people; stroll on the large lawn with clusters of flowers, and feel the sunshine of California... Stanford University is a very outstanding cultural landscape.
Another deep impression of Stanford University is the mental outlook of the students. The day I went there was Monday afternoon, just in time for the break between classes. I witnessed students filing out of the classroom and riding bicycles to rush to the classroom for the next class... The seriousness of the academic masters is intuitive and real.Stanford44.4km from San FranciscoFree entry
5. Union Square
6.3305 Reviewsbased on 2.2k reviewsNo.10 of Best Things to Do in San Francisco泰迪小熊Came here on September 24, 2017.
Union Square is the city center of San Francisco, surrounded by the downtown area, and there are many classic buildings with a sense of age on the streets around it. Various famous and big-name flagship stores are mainly concentrated along Geary Street on the south side of the square; there are some small shops on Post Street on the north side. You can go shopping here and find a store to sit down and have a simple meal.
In addition, San Francisco's popular trams are also around the square, you can go and take a ride.San Francisco1.8km from downtownFree entry
6. Chinatown
6.0288 ReviewsNo.11 of Best Things to Do in San Francisco泰迪小熊Came on September 24, 2017. "San Francisco" is actually a nickname for Chinese to San Francisco, California, which is enough to experience generations of Chinese people who have been based in the city for a long time, and San Francisco's Chinatown is also a relatively large Chinese community in the United States. As tourists from the motherland, we naturally come here to punch in. The first time I came to Chinatown, I had a sense of sputum. It is obviously a place where Chinese people live, and Chinese is also everywhere, but it doesn't look "China". Later, I figured out that the earliest Chinese emigrated to the United States was the Qing Dynasty, and then experienced the Republic of China and New China, plus the integration of local American culture, so the overall face of Chinatown looked familiar and strange. Although it may be a long time since we left our country, we can still feel the red heart of most Chinese people. We were already a week away from the National Day, and Chinatown had already put up lights and colored, hanging banners celebrating the National Day early, and really showed that "although the dress is worn, my heart is still the Chinese heart".San Francisco2.5km from downtownFree entry

sculptorThe Palace of Fine Arts is a monumental building originally built for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition to display works of art. It is the only structure from the World's Fair to have survived on site. The most prominent building of the Palace of Fine Arts is a 49-meter-high open rotunda surrounded by a lagoon on one side and adjacent to a large curved exhibition center on the other side, separated from the lagoon by a colonnade.San Francisco4km from downtownFree entry
8. The Painted Ladies
5.9133 Reviewsbased on 1.9k reviewsNo.13 of Best Things to Do in San Francisco泰迪小熊Came on September 23, 2017. The name "Painted Ladies" came from a book of the same name published in 1978, which refers to many colorful Victorian buildings in San Francisco. The history of these buildings dates back to the late 19th century, when San Francisco developed rapidly due to the gold rush, and San Francisco built about 10,000 houses of this style, and became the first choice for the emerging middle class at the time. Only after more than half a century of baptism, these old houses inevitably encounter problems of old disrepair. So in the 6th and 70th centuries, when people were repairing the house, they also painted the facade of the house according to the aesthetic at that time, and they were given these bright colors that we see now, which is also the reason for the book of "Painted Ladies". Today, there are still many "painted ladies" in San Francisco, the most famous representative is the six houses next to each other on the east side of Alamo Square. Since the Stainer Street in front of the house is a street with a slope, the altitude of the six "ladies" is also in ascending order. They have similar “looks,” different “heights,” and different colors of “dresses,” like six sisters of a family standing together for a group photo, so they are also nicknamed “six sisters.” The Six Sisters is a beautiful and interesting attraction and is now a well-known landmark in San Francisco. At such attractions, the timing and location of the photo punch card are key. Because the "painted lady" sits east to west, the best time to take pictures is dusk, the sunset hits the building surface, will increase the saturation of the color. The best place to take pictures is in the park in front of the house, where there is a large lawn where you can rest, enjoy a picnic, and enjoy these beautiful buildings. The altitude of the lawn is higher than the floor of the "painted lady", not only can you close to the empty mirror of the "painted lady", you can also sit on the lawn and take a "collective photo" of yourself and them, and even take it to the skyline of downtown San Francisco, which is very popular.San Francisco1.2km from downtownFree entry
9. PIER 39
5.7309 Reviewsbased on 23.0k reviews泰迪小熊It came on September 24, 2017. Pier 39 is the most fun "old pier" in San Francisco. This pier is located in the center of the "Fisherman's Wharf" area. It may be changed into a commercial complex integrating sightseeing, leisure, amusement and dining because the place is relatively large. The shops are quite good. It's the right time to come anytime. Another feature here is that there are many sea lions on the dock, and their leisurely appearance is relaxing.San Francisco3.8km from downtownFree entry
10. Twin Peaks
5.4166 ReviewsNo.15 of Best Things to Do in San Francisco112***09The Twin Towers are Xiamen's landmark buildings, facing the Gulangyu Island Scenic Area. Nearby are all luxury houses, which belong to the rich and the noble. It is so comfortable to sit on the Twin Towers, drink afternoon tea and enjoy the autumn sunshine.San Francisco3.3km from downtownFree entry
