| Welcome to San Francisco! |
 San Francisco, “the City by the Bay,” is one of the world’s most romantic and memorable destinations. Its international character gives rise to distinct, eclectic neighborhoods dotted with cafes, boutiques and night life catering to local residents and tourists alike. Stroll through historic Chinatown, home of the largest Chinese New Year’s celebration outside of mainland China, and feast on authentic regional Chinese cuisine.
Or take in a performance of San Francisco’s world-renowned Opera, Ballet, or Symphony. Spend the day browsing the Museum of Modern Art, the de Young, the Palace of Fine Arts, or the Asian Art Museum. Or take a walk on the wild side and explore the neon-lit strip clubs and campy transvestite revues in North Beach.
You won’t want to miss historic Fisherman’s Wharf and its dozens of cafes featuring steaming Dungeness crab and crusty, fragrant sourdough bread. For an elegant evening out, try one of the chic wine bars or trendy restaurants in Union Square. Voted “most walkable city” by walkscore.com, San Francisco also features over 200 miles of bicycle paths, a world-class marina, and opportunities for boating, sailing, windsurfing and kite surfing. And just a short drive over the Golden Gate Bridge will lead you to one of the premier wine-producing regions of the world. |

 San Francisco International Airport is within 45 minutes of the City Center. Alternatively, many visitors fly in to Oakland International Airport or San Jose International Airport, each within 90 minutes or less.
When is the best time to visit? As famous for its fog as it is for its cable cars, the city is cool and temperate year-round. As a matter of fact, any time the temperature in San Francisco climbs above 80° F it’s considered a heat wave. Summer is the busiest tourist season, but insiders prefer the “Indian Summer” months between September and November when the skies are clearest and the crowds are fewer. From Thanksgiving to late Spring is the slowest season.
You’ll find an amazing array of places to stay in the city, from charming Victorian B&Bs to luxurious 5-star hotels. And within just an hour’s drive of downtown you can often stay for less. |
