The City Lights Bookstore is an interesting, independent bookstore that recalls the narrow, cluttered passageways of Shakespeare & Co. in Paris. While the selection is not as large as some of the larger, commercial chains, the books they choose to carry are actually interesting. The inside of th…

The Mission is a great place to go for murals. Even Mc D's is covered with murals. Clarion Alley is a street covered with paintings (and quite a bit of graffiti). It was originally inspired by the Balmy Alley Murals and the artwork sometimes changes.
Some paintings are simply aesthetically pleasi…

This is a very cool building in Golden Gate Park that houses a variety of different plants. Each room has a different, carefully controlled climate, simulating the environments where different species of plants and flowers grow. In some rooms you'll feel like you're in a humid jungle, and in others …

Delores Park is a stretch of green lawn in the middle of Mission Delores.
The actual infrastructure consists of not much more than a playground, some benches and some trees, but on weekends and sunny days, the park fills with up with people and pockets of urban quirkiness. In one corner, there may …

Being as old as I am I have had the opportunity to see and experience quite an array of music and musical groups. But I recently had the chance to see and very much enjoy the music of “Four Shillings Short”, a duo who perform a very diverse style from Celtic, Gaelic, Irish, blues, East Indian, …

As the timeless and iconic song goes, “But square cut or pear shape, These rocks don't lose their shape! Diamonds are a girl's best friend….” and true to form, the display of jewelry, keepsakes, holloware and furniture dazzled the eyes and mind. (In my opinion) the Legion welcomed and introduc…

North Beach a vibrant, italian district in SF. There are lots of neat restaurants and open air cafes lining the streets, where you can get nice dinner or your gelato fix. It is definitely one of the more easily "walkable" areas of San Francisco. Since there are a lot of clubs and bars in the area,…

I really loved this street, because it reminded me of the Soho district in London and NewYork. It's a place that lives of grunge, punk, hippie oriented lifestyle. You will find lots of art influences people on the street, graffitys and drawings on every wall. Lots of pubs, bars, restaurants, and GOO…

The Golden Gate Park is a beautiful place, if you're a local from San Francisco, and like to have a walk or go jogging. But for tourists in my opinion it isn't that amazing. Don't get me wrong, I don't regret having it visited, but it's just so big to walk around. We entered it from the height stree…
