10 Sights & Landmarks in Alamo Square That You Shouldn't Miss

November 30, 2021 Karren Gelb

Every neighborhood in San Francisco has its own personality, from the hippie chic of the Upper Haight to the hipster grit of the Mission. The Marina district boasts trendy bistros and postcard-perfect views of the Golden Gate Bridge, while Noe Valley offers quaint and quiet boutiques. Wave hello to the sea lions at Pier 39, and sample local cheese and charcuterie at the Ferry Building. Sit in on a yoga session in Dolores Park or marvel at the Dutch Windmill across from Ocean Beach.

I had a wonderful adventure touring San Francisco with Carrie and the small group of great people! We saw every part of the city from Old town, mission, downtown, the rebuilt parts, Alamo Square, Golden Gate Bridge, Pacific Heights, ( where the billionaires live and spectacular breath taking views that you’ll never see on your own. Our tour guide Carrie was very informative and I learned things I’ve never even heard of. I highly recommend taking the tour on the Painted Ladies bus!!!
