A city of creatives
You may recognise San Fran’s biggest landmarks from the world of film thanks to the city’s picturesque qualities. But below the silhouette of the Golden Gate Bridge and the rumbling of the cable cars, there’s a thriving world of artistic and technological endeavour. Getting hungry? Make the trip to Fisherman’s Wharf for some local history and a taste of the renowned Dungeness crab. Don’t forget one of the world’s choice tourist destinations either; the notorious Alcatraz Island.
