111 Places in San Francisco That You Must Not Miss, Paperback / softback Book

111 Places in San Francisco That You Must Not Miss Paperback / softback

Part of the 111 Places series

Paperback / softback

Description

San Francisco: the home of hills and valleys, of dreamers and trailblazers, of hippies and hipsters.

From the gold rush to the Golden Gate, the City by the Bay has always basked in the glow of its colourful and celebrated history and world-renowned landmarks.

But for those who live and love on this compact, seven-mile by seven-mile metropolis, San Francisco is a treasure trove of unusual neighbourhood sights and places that sparkle with the allure of hidden pleasures and local lore.

Discover a stairway that transports you from the depths of the ocean to the heights of outer space; take a spin class amidst the grand elegance of a repurposed 1920s movie palace; or slide down a century-old sundial that sits at the centre of what was once California's first racetrack for cars.

This is the real San Francisco. Strung together, the 111 experiences gathered here tell the B-side story of the city once romantically known as the Paris of the West.
