SAN FRANCISCO
One of the most popular vacation destinations in the US, with up-hill streets that are lined with Victorian houses. San Francisco has a great turquoise bay surrounded by low mountains, and antique cable cars that still shuttle passengers up and down the city slopes. All of this makes San Francisco a very unique and a picturesque place. The Golden Gate Suspension Bridge is a very busy place, particularly during the summer months. It is estimated that about nine million people from around the world visit the Bridge each year. The Fisherman’s wharf is the best area to be in and the Union Square is the city’s urban centre with numerous dining and shopping outlets.
