The Golden Gate Bridge Of San Francisco
#wecreate
The golden gate Bridge is a magnificent structure. It is one of those bridges that people will flock to take pictures with as it is absolutely beautiful. The Bridge stands tall with its sweeping cables and with its outstanding colour red, everyone can see it from afar. The golden Bridge itself is very long too, as it stretches across the bay area of San Francisco. I stand in awe when I visited this giant Bridge and wonder how people of the past built something so grand and huge, with their limited tools and technology. The golden gate Bridge is a true and a true wonder, and one with many amazing views. Go to the golden gate Bridge today and be amazed, just like me.
The beauty of San Francisco.
After many years, I finally succeeded in taking a picture of the bridge on a sunny day! But every time I come,
Is there really no summer here in SF where it gets so cold ❄️?
📷Best photo spot | Battery Spencerei, a small mountain road where the wind gets stronger as you walk. But the photos taken here are really beautiful 👀💐

PIER 39 Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Great Shopping area in San Francisco
One of San Francisco’s busiest and largest tourist attractions, Pier 39 and nearby Fisherman’s Wharf is a must do for tourists.
Pier 39 is surrounded by waterfront dining, street performers, live music, shopping and tons of carnival-like dessert stands.Pier 39 has everything you could ever want or need from Souvenirs, to ice cream there even a store especially for left handed.
This place can usually spend up to a day but only one thing is carpark is limited on a busy weekend
San Francisco
Lovely lively place, do much happening in their with lots of happy faces. Good food choices and lots of possibilities for souvenir shopping. Some street performers as well. Exceptional views to the bay, Alcatraz, Golden Gate Bridge and so on. Close to other attractions in San Francisco. Parking right next to it is a expensive, $25 for 2 hours and $35 for 3 hours. Better to park a bit further and walk gently to it. Bring a jacket.
SF Pier Course - lots of delicious restaurant
Wonderful and quite warm winter now in SF, one of the best time to visit!
Let me introduce a pier39 course :)
First you should enjoy the view of pier39 where you can see seaports and lots of interesting shops.
And then I recommend to visit boudin bakery, which is famous for Sourdough and Clamchawder!
Really amazing - you can also have peet coffee, which is a local coffee franchise!
After the lunch you can take cycles around the piers and even visit Golden gate bridge if you want.
For dinner, I went to Sotto Mare a famous and popular local Italian!
Hehe and then I went to Bueno Vista, one of popular bars and cafes which serves great Irish coffee! You can feel the whiskey in coffee!
Magnificent showcase of war ships

Fisherman's Wharf Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Fisherman's Wharf - with a walk to pier 39
Fisherman's Wharf is one of the most popular San Francisco attraction, starting from amazing views to chowder bread bowls, watching performance, small size arcade and a few theme rides plus California wines is what make the trip to San Francisco starts at PIER 39 a must.
There are plenty of stalls and rows of stands where you can buy fresh seafood - crabs, fried fish, mussels, and more. Not to mention of buying goodies ans souvenirs of San Francisco can be purchase here as well.
Having fish & chips with some wine at the pier gave great views of the bay, the bridge and Alcatraz island from far.
Great Snacks for tea break
#afternoontea
During a trip to San Francisco I have a wonderful afternoon tea break at the Fishermen’s Wharf , the particular shop name was Sabella and La Torre
The food I had was the Clam Chowder bread bowl. Basically it the chowder it self was serve inside a round shape bread . The experience itself was totally unique and taste of the Chowder was glad . it cost about USD 10 after sale tax.
Highly Recommended this shop if u walk pass and need a break in between
From Ghirardelli Square all the way to Pier 35 is the scope of Fisherman's Wharf. The most popular is Pier 39, with a variety of specialty shops, restaurants, street performers. Looking at the sea, you can also see Alcatraz Island, Golden Gate Bridge, Bay Bridge and so on. Here you can rent bicycles, eat seafood, watch shows, watch Wax Museum, see Underwater World, watch sea lions and more.
Address: Pier 39 Concourse #2, San Francisco, CA 94133
Transportation: General BART or Muni after Embarcadero transfer to F-Market & Wharves
Tips: No. 39 The 2nd food stalls near the pier go to eat crabs, the price is relatively cheap, and there is no service charge for the food stalls. If it is a restaurant, a crab is about 30-40 knives, and the stalls are 25-30 knives. This season is crab. Cheap season. In addition, the special sour bread of San Francisco does not need to be specially looked for. It is basically sold in every gear and restaurant, but the personal taste is not very good.
Every city has a place that brings together the largest number of tourists in the city, this place in San Francisco is the Fisherman's Wharf. There are various tourist souvenir shops selling shops selling pearls, like Hangzhou Hefang Street and Shanghai Chenghuang Temple.
But what is different in San Francisco is the warm sunshine of this port city and the seals that are idle on the shore.
When I got to the meal, I would like to dine at Crab House, which is well received here. I need to register when I enter the door. After the registration, there is a long and long team in front of us, so I gave up.
Fisherman's Wharf The nearest is Pier 39, with a prominent parking lot. Although there are some free parking spaces on the roadside at the weekend, they are all full and can't be ours. Pier 39 Parking 9 knives / hour, take the parking card with you, lunch can be exempted for 1h, dinner can be exempted for 2h. When you look back at the car, remember to first swipe the card on the payment machine and then take the car.

Lombard Street Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
The Most Crooked Road In San Francisco
#wecreate
Have you seen a road that's the most narrow and most crooked in the world before? Well, if you're in San Francisco, you would be able to see this. The lombard street in San Francisco is famous for being the crookedest street in the world. Once you reach the top of Lombard street, it's hard to imagine how one can drive down such a narrow and crooked street, but people still drive through such street everyday. You will be surprised that lombard street is a pretty busy street with cars passing it and visitors walking to visit super tight road and busy taking pictures of it. It is a short street but still great to visit this well known attraction.
Lombard Street - Zip zap
Lombard Street is known for its one way street where there are eight sharp turns which makes it the most crooked street in the world.
There are many ways to get to lombard street. You can take several city buses through North Beach, the most popular is the 30, which runs from Union Square. Get off on Columbus Ave. near Lombard St. From here, you will walk west (uphill) a few blocks to get to Jones St., the bottom of the hill where the curvy part of Lombard St. begins.
It is definitely a good work out trying to walk uphill up to the top of the lombard street. If you are driving, you could definitely try driving through the street to experience the crooked street. However, there are many vehicles so if you did get in line to drive down the hill, there will be no way out as it is a one way street.
Overall, it still remains a popular must visit place for tourist.

Alcatraz Island Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
The infamous Alcatraz, worth the journey!
Alcatraz Prison, Alcatraz Island - San Francisco, California.
I have always wanted to go to Alcatraz so jumped at the chance during a 48 hour stop over in San Francisco.
The prison has to be one of the most impressive museums I’ve been to in my life, the layout takes you through so much of the complex and is absolutely fascinating.
The prison is infamous as it’s use a penitentiary between the 1930’s to the 1930’s but the museum also covers the lesser known period when it was occupied by native Americans during their national protest and fight for rights and recognition.
There is so much left from both of these eras so you really get a sense of what it was like through its history.
The boat ride back and forth from the pier also gives you stunning views of San Francisco and it’s iconic hills and vistas.
Worth a trip for any history buffs and anyone that wants to better understand the history of this wonderful city. #sanfrancisco #alcatraz #california #urbanexplorer #america #history
Trip To Alcatraz Prison
I always wondered why would anyone pay a visit to a prison? This prison that I am talking about is the famous Alcatraz prison in San Francisco. In fact, the Alcatraz is one of the favourite or hot attractions to go to. My mindset changed after I Went for the prison tour and I was blown away by it.
To get to Alcatraz, you would need to take a short ferry ride to get across. The prison sits on an island and the whole place was cold and gave off an eerie vibe. You could get an audio aid and tour the prison around yourself. The Alcatraz is no longer in use but it is still well preserved the way it was originally. From the prison cells, you could see how small it was and with minimal amenities for them, the Alcatraz was probably the worse prison for the worse criminals. Security was so tight then, that only 3 prisoners managed to escape the Alcatraz.
The place is full of history and gave so much insights into prison life which is unknown to us. The Alcatraz is indeed a great experience and the tour is a must go if you're in San Francisco.

Alcatraz prison 🪶
Place: Alcatraz Island
Country: USA, California, 1.6 miles off San Francisco coastline
Very lovely place! Small Island in San Francisco, located one ferry away from the mainland. Visitors can take the guided tours with earpieces, or choose to explore the prison (and the island) by themselves. Quite a lot of uphill walking, so prepare to have a good climb!
Quite windy as it’s in the middle of the ocean, with very nice views of San Francisco from the island. Highly recommend to all
Random fact: It is heavily publicised that the Prison shut down after the great prison break of three prisoners, but in actuality, the prison had already decided to shut down due to lack of funds.

In The Alcatraz Island, The Prison Walks
The Alcatraz Island is a popular tourists attraction as it was once an island of incarceration where this was a prison for the most dangerous criminal and it was heavily guarded by the military making this look like a Fort and almost impossible to break out of the island due to the prison being surrounded by waters.
Now the prison has closed since the 1963 due to the very heavy cost of running this operation, it has become a tourist attraction where you will be able to go into the walls of the Fort to have a look at how the prisoners here once lived. Prisoners are separated with cell doors and you will learn the type of prisoners being sent here. You will also be able to walk the ground of the Alcatraz Island into the different building, the dinning Hall and there is now also a souvenir shop for you if you want to bring back some memories of this island.
You will be able to learn the history behind the island and also the prisoners sufferings in here as well, to understand their way of life and their daily routine here.
