Top Attractions in San Francisco California

California is a great state for vacationing because the weather is almost always sunny and beautiful and because it is so popular, there is so many things to keep you busy. Although Los Angeles and Hollywood tend to be thought of as the more glamorous and exciting cities in California but there is so many great attractions in San Francisco as well. I’m sharing today some of the most popular and can’t miss top spots in San Francisco. We hope that you love this Top Attractions in San Francisco California post.

Golden Gate Bridge

Whether you’ve seen pictures or maybe you’ve seen it in the Full House theme song, I’m sure you’ve probably seen the Golden Gate Bridge. A lot people don’t know why this bridge has its name, I can assure you it is not because it is golden… LOL It is actually because the bridge is spanned over the Golden Gate. The bridge is approximately 8,981 feet.

Alcatraz Island

Alcatraz Island hosted a federal prison years ago that hosted some of the most well known criminals but these days it is open for tours and viewing. You can choose to take the tour of the prison during daylight or night. I personally recommend the night tour but it may be a little more frightening for younger children. Definitely a must see in San Francisco!

San Francisco Giants Game

If you’re there during baseball season, I would highly recommend seeing a San Francisco Giants game. They play at AT&T park and I just personally think it’s always interesting to see another city’s love for their sports teams.

San Francisco Zoo

The San Francisco Zoo is always one of my favorite stops on a family vacation. San Francisco hosts over 2,000 animals of all different species and they are so beautiful to see. The San Francisco Zoo is one of the largest in the United States and I would highly recommend checking it out.

Chinatown

There are several Chinatown locations throughout the United States but I personally think San Francisco is one of the best to see. You can find so much fun and things to do in Chinatown. Whether it be finding your favorite Dim Sum restaurant or singing karaoke, Chinatown is bound to be a great time.

If you are making a trip to California, I would highly recommend checking out San Francisco. Maybe you can even spend a couple days in San Francisco and then travel to another beautiful city in California for another couple days.
