Endless Attractions and Fun Things to Do in San Francisco

San Francisco. The name conjures images of quaint cable cars gliding over the hilltops, the majestic fog-shrouded Golden Gate Bridge spanning the Bay and the formidable mystique of Alcatraz Island.

Although these sights are still some of the top-visited places in the city, San Francisco, California is so much more than the renowned landmark attractions that have long defined its personality.
