Things to do in San Francisco, California (CA): The Best Sacred & Religious Sites

February 17, 2022 Rebbecca Marino

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.

Old Cathedral of St. Mary

This downtown San Francisco landmark was the first Catholic church in California.

Reviewed By mini - Fremont, United States

Old Cathedral of St. Mary's is the first cathedral in California. It is an active Catholic Church. I visited the Cathedral when I was in Chinatown area of San Francisco. It began in 1853. The stone work is from China and was brought over by boat. The cathedral is very pretty with stained glass windows. There is more I read about the history in the history cases when one enters the cathedral. There is also a Cathedral Store, which I visited. They had some nice manger sets.
