A wide variety of attractions for the locals, visitors and tourists is offered in San Francisco. As a matter of fact, things to do in the city seem to be endless. However, the "Top Things to do" in San Francisco involves visits at the waterfront, around town, and on the city's ocean and bay fronts.

The Golden Gate Bridge is one spectacular sight at the Waterfront of San Francisco and it is the most photographed sight in the world. It stretches 4,200 feet with a towering height compared to a 65 story building. A walk at the bridge is one of the most enjoyable things to do.

The Alcatraz is another popular sight of San Francisco's Waterfront as it is a former prison for the notorious criminals. The interesting part to do at this place is the self-walking guided tour through the aid of headphones that narrates the whole story of about Alcatraz.

The Fisherman's Wharf, Pier39, and Ghirardelli Square are all located half a dozen blocks along the Waterfront. Simply walking along the streets, your attention will be caught by some entertaining performers. The street also has plenty of tempting souvenir shops and great seafood restaurants.

Union Square is found around the town of San Francisco and it is also the third largest shopping area in the United States. It is a fabulous place to shop for clothes, art works and items for your home - but make sure that you have enough money because prices are quite expensive.

The Crookedest Street in the World, or simply Lombard Street, is a must see attraction in San Francisco. As you watch the vehicles make their curves as they go down the crooked street, it is a great attraction and a marvel to the eye. According to some people, it is much more interesting to experience the crooked section of the street by riding or driving a car.

San Francisco also has many places for antiques that you can visit. The Cliff House where you can find the Camera Obscura that was invented by Leonardo Da Vinci is included here. Not to mention that the Cliff House is also a very nice place for a drink because it offers excellent views of the Pacific Ocean and Seal Rock.

The North Beach is the place in San Francisco where there's always something to do. Though mostly the activities involve eating, North Beach is still full of activities. The area has tons of cafe's, restaurants, delicatessens, and bakeries for you to choose from.
