San Francisco is one of the most interesting cities in the world with its beautiful Golden Gate Bridge (Golden Gate), its cable car (tram) and its vertiginous slopes, immortalized in movie screens worldwide. Of all its attractions not only recommend a visit to the former prison of Alcatraz, which was always a depressing place and now, lying off, was even more bleak, I do not think many people will still visit the old Rock (a rock was the nickname given by prisoners to Alcatraz, which was built on a rock).
There are several interesting walks that can be done almost without cost, as a visit to China Town (Chinatown), the Fisherman's Warf (pier movimentadíssimo with bars and restaurants), the Lombard Streed (the street more pie in the world), Downtown (center city, with its beautiful squares and spikes). We recommend that you rent a car with GPS, because taxis are expensive and walking in San Francisco requires physical preparation of athletes.
You can take a car and go through the Golden Gate Bridge, I guarantee it will be a nice ride, but if you go to Golden Gate Park you can enjoy a longer bridge, sitting on a bench in the shade of a tree. I believe that this option will be more enjoyable and cost less because it is not charged at this beautiful urban park entrance. The Golden Gate Park is rectangular, 20% larger than Central Park in New York and receives 13 million visitors per year.
To learn what's happening in San Francisco, grab a copy of the SF Weekly and Guardian, two free weekly publications that feature all the attractions of San Francisco, as shows, restaurants and others. You can get these newspapers in any city bank and thus better choose what to do and where to go.
The Cable Car, or gondola, is the icon of the city and even has a museum (Cable Car Museum) presdervar dedicated to its history. The trolley has a traction system via underground cables (cable) that is unique in the world and not only were disabled because people did not leave, as well as being one of the most popular attractions of the city are great for going up and down the hills while crossing San Francisco and still enjoy a beautiful view.
If the San Francisco, take time to visit Yosemite National Park, every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday at seven in the morning. buses leave San Francisco for the park, are in force lasts about 14 hours and costs about three hundred dollars per person, but worth it.
