Things to do in San Francisco, California (CA): The Best Sights & Landmarks

September 19, 2021 Malia Yoakum

Every neighborhood in San Francisco has its own personality, from the hippie chic of the Upper Haight to the hipster grit of the Mission. The Marina district boasts trendy bistros and postcard-perfect views of the Golden Gate Bridge, while Noe Valley offers quaint and quiet boutiques. Wave hello to the sea lions at Pier 39, and sample local cheese and charcuterie at the Ferry Building. Sit in on a yoga session in Dolores Park or marvel at the Dutch Windmill across from Ocean Beach.

If you want to see a Diego Rivera mural, this is his most accessible of his three San Francisco murals. It’s also very beautiful and located in a gallery that houses the occasional exhibition.

Lombard Street

Known as the "crookedest" street in the world, the steep hills and sharp curves of this one-way road pass by grand Victorian mansions and attract millions of tourists each year.

we caught the cable car to the top of Lombard street, we absolutely loved the weave road and how beautifully it is maintained with all the gorgeous flower's, there was certainly alot of tourist there, some even were blocking the road to take pictures which was annoying for the drivers at the bottom. a lovely couple took our picture:). must be annoying for the neighbors that live on the street. but a great place to go see

Russian Hill

Visitor-friendly neighborhood which got its name when prospectors found 7 Cyrillic-inscribed gravestones at the top of the hill.

Right after Nob Hill. Russian Hill has steep incline but a great view of the city awaits for you at the top
