————————————————————

Golden Gate Bridge
The Golden Gate Bridge is one of the world's largest single-span suspension bridges and is considered a symbol of San Francisco. The 2.7-kilometer-long Golden Gate Bridge runs through the entire San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean's Golden Gate Strait. It is also an important transportation hub connecting San Francisco and cities to the north. At the same time, American blockbusters such as "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" and "X-Men" have been filmed here.

Palace of Fine Art
The San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts was built in 1915 for the Panama Pacific International Exposition. After the conference, the Palace of Fine Arts gradually fell into disrepair and eventually became a deserted building. It was not until 1962 that the famous German architect, Mabecker, redesigned and renovated it, which brought it back to its youthful beauty.

Lombard Street
Known as the "Crookedest Street in the World," Lombardy Boulevard is one of San Francisco's most popular landmarks. Millions of tourists walk or drive through its eight hairpin bends every year. Surrounded by Russian-style mansions, manicured landscaping, and flowers, it is also one of the most scenic streets in the city. From the top of the hill, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of San Francisco Bay, the Bay Bridge, and Coit Tower.

San Francisco Fisherman's Wharf
Fisherman's Wharf is a household name in San Francisco. Starting from Girardelli Square and extending to Pier 35, you can see the busiest Pier 39 with its various shops, restaurants, and street performances, and you can also enjoy the views of Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Bay Bridge in the distance.

San Francisco Bay Cruise
The beautiful Golden Gate Bridge and the magnificent Oakland Bay Bridge are the faces of San Francisco. You can visit these two attractions one by one by taking a cruise. The cruise passes under the beautiful bridge, and you can feel the sea breeze on your face and relax your mind. You can also see the magnificent scenery of Alcatraz Island up close. Such a trip will definitely bring you very beautiful memories.

San Francisco Civic Center
San Francisco City Hall is an impressive building, once considered one of the most beautiful public buildings in the United States. The San Francisco City Hall imitates the architectural style of St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican, and the design of the golden dome is inspired by the Invalides in Paris.

Twin Peaks
The two hills, about 270 meters above sea level, are also the only natural hills preserved in San Francisco. They are famous for their 360-degree panoramic views. The Twin Peaks are the two main commanding heights in San Francisco, and there is an 8-shaped road surrounding the two peaks. The mountaintop observation deck here is not blocked by dense trees, so you can take in the beautiful scenery of San Francisco. Looking down from the peak, you will be intoxicated by the bustling San Francisco city view and the charming bay scenery.
