Welcome to San Francisco

Grab your coat and a handful of glitter, and enter the land of fog and fabulousness. If there's a skateboard move yet to be busted, a technology still unimagined, a green scheme untested or quirk left uncelebrated, chances are it's about to happen here. So long, inhibitions; hello, San Francisco.

Golden Gate Bridge

When afternoon fog rolls in, poof! San Francisco's iconic landmark disappears. Mornings the Golden Gate Bridge reappears, orange against blue skies a trick assisted by 25 daredevil painters, who apply 1000 gallons of paint weekly.

Alcatraz

No prisoner escaped this notorious island prison alive not officially, anyway but once the door clangs behind you in D-Block solitary, the 1.25-mile swim through riptides seems worth a shot. On the return ferry ride to San Francisco, freedom never felt so good.

Exploratorium

The Exploratorium isn't a museum it's a total trip, with experiential, psychedelic science exhibits. Enter a colorless world, grope through the pitch-black Tactile Dome, sip glowing cocktails in the Ultraviolet Room and emerge enlightened.

Golden Gate Park

San Franciscans have successfully preserved this 1.5-mile wild streak since 1866, ousting casinos, resorts and an igloo village. Today, everything San Francisco really needs is here: inspiration, nature and microbrewed beer at the Beach Chalet.

de Young Museum

The copper-clad de Young is oxidizing green to match the park, but its eclectic, globe-trotting collection is a showstopper. Creative breakthroughs await at every turn: 1980s Keith Haring graffiti, 1960s Oscar de la Renta ball gowns, 1890s Oceanic masks.

Coit Tower & Filbert Street Steps

Wild parrots may mock your progress up Telegraph Hill's garden-lined Filbert staircase, but they can't keep these bay vistas to themselves. Panoramas and jaw-dropping 1930s murals reward climbs to Coit Tower.

Asian Art Museum

When San Francisco's Pacific Ocean panoramas are lost in fog, you can still see all the way across Asia in this 18,000-piece collection spanning 6000 years, from Pakistan to Japan.

Cable Cars

Leap onto the baseboard and grab a leather strap you're in for the ultimate urban carnival ride. When steep climbs yield sudden glimpses of the Golden Gate, public transit never seemed so poetic.

Ferry Building

The towering achievement here is the sensational, sustainable California bounty that overflows the halls. Award-winning chefs serve signature San Francisco dishes with sparkling bay views, and local producers supply constant culinary inspiration.

Marine Life at Fisherman's Wharf

Sea lions are living the California dream at Pier 39: lolling on docks and feasting on seafood. On the other side of Pier 39, sharks circle at Aquarium of the Bay, separated from visitors by a glass tube.
