Introduction:

San Francisco

The unique California city is famous for its iconic Golden Gate Bridge, fog and cable cars. San Francisco was founded in 1776 by Spanish settlers and named for St. Francis of Assisi and the city grew dramatically during the California Gold Rush of 1849. Popular sites are the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, San Francisco Bay, Alcatraz, Fisherman's Wharf, Coit Tower, the crooked Lombard Street, Transamerica Pyramid, San Francisco Maritime National Historic Park and Chinatown. Now, plan your San Francisco travel for your next vacation. Find a Alcatraz Tour, Things to do in Fisherman's Wharf or take a Golden Gate Bridge Cruise to see the beauty of San Francisco.

Golden Gate Bridge

The world-famous remarkable Art Deco reddish-orange suspension bridge that crosses the Golden Gate Strait is a symbol of San Francisco and one of the most photographed bridges in the world. The Golden Gate Bridge opened in 1937 after almost four years of construction and its main engineer Joseph Strauss wrote a poem entitled "A Mighty Task is Done" about its completion. The Golden Gate Bridge Pavilion opened in 2012 as an on-site visitor's center for the structure's 75th anniversary and the 8,981-foot bridge attracts approximately 12 million people annually.

North Beach

This San Francisco neighborhood is known as the city's "Little Italy" for having a large Italian-American population. Popular spots are Columbus Avenue, The National Shrine of St. Francis of Assisi, Saints Peter and Paul Church, City Lights Bookstore, Columbus Tower, North Beach Museum, The Hotel Bohème and The Beat Museum. Baseball star Joe DiMaggio grew up in North Beach and later lived there for a short time after he married Hollywood starlet Marilyn Monroe.
