Whether you are interested in exploring the history and culture of a place or enjoying its natural scenic beauty or a night bird in the hunt of nightclubs, bars and other hot places, San Francisco has everything for everyone. Its truly cosmopolitan nature makes it popular with all kinds of tourists from all parts of the world.
There are so many attractions that you will find yourself severely constrained by time to visit them all, no matter how long your holidays last. It will invariably prod you to think about a return visit. Nevertheless, if you are able to manage your time very well, you won't be at a loss. For your convenience, I am suggesting a few places from where you can embark on your cruise of the city.
The Fisherman's Wharf is one of the most famous tourist destinations in San Francisco . Very close to the Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf and the Radisson Hotel Fisherman's Wharf , it represents modern San Francisco , but you will find the atmosphere of this place a little laid back. Fisherman's Wharf is popular for many things, such as its historical waterfront, delicious seafood, interesting museums and unique shopping arcades. The historic waterfront is still used as a working fishing pier, so you can sample a variety of fresh seafood at Hyatt restaurant, from where, incidentally, you can also have the best glimpses of old fishermen at work. The only condition is to reach this place a little early, so that you can watch them fishing.
After visiting this place, just cruise down the Broadway Street to have a look at the effervescent schlock joints or walk past the historic San Francisco Ghirardelli Chocolate Factory near Fisherman's Wharf. This is the place that thrives on the new and long-standing restaurants and shops that cater to the best of tastes in every respect. If you happen to be there in early September, you can enjoy the grand Ghirardelli Square Chocolate Festival |
