Must visit in SF. Musical stairs (music as you walk up and down the stairs), sea lions (>50) that you can see up close, kid and stroller friendly, carousel, magicians, rides.Great seafood (around 10 seafood restaurants) and other food options (20+ other eateries) including 3 ice cream shops + other dessert shops. You can easily enjoy 2-3 hours here.There are also It was also clean and had a good amount of restrooms.Although entry is free, the big parking lot close by is about $10 per hour, effectively acting as a fee.

The museum is tucked away in an unassuming building, but it's quite spacious inside. A glass elevator takes you up, and you can see the Golden Gate Bridge standing out in the distance. It's full of old photographs and models; the original Mickey Mouse was actually drawn on a train. A little girl stared intently at the Oscar trophy in the glass case, her eyes practically glued to it. One room played a loop of color animated films; the older images were actually more appealing than the modern ones. I sat by the window for a while, watching the sea; a cool breeze slipped in through the cracks.

Although we bought tickets for the 4 PM boat, there were empty seats on the boat before us, so they let us in. The location was easy to find, right next to Pier 39. There was Wi-Fi, but no Chinese commentary. The scenery was beautiful and worth a ride.

旧金山市政厅是一座重建的市政厅,原来的市政厅在 1905 年大地震时被摧毁。这座市政厅建于 1915 年,看上去很像美国的国会大厦,但比美国的国会大厦还要高。

I don't know if the market is open every day or has a time limit. We didn't find any market when we came. But we were not disappointed. The scenery at the pier is very good because it is not in rotation. You can take a boat to the sea. There are also many shops around to visit.

The square was named after the novelist Jack London. This is a sightseeing mall, an old wooden building, simple and dignified. It faces Oakland Bay and has private yachts. There are also adults and children playing hula hoops in the square. Harmonious

This stadium is the home of a professional baseball team. Baseball is rarely seen in China, and it is also a relatively unpopular event. However, Japanese professional baseball is a very popular sport in the United States, with a large number of fans.

A local friend drove me here to visit the classical architecture of San Francisco. The neighborhood here is very beautiful, and the houses along the street are of a very uniform style. It is a very beautiful neighborhood. I recommend you to take a look.
