Things to do in San Francisco, California (CA): The Best Sights & Landmarks
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.

One of San Francisco's unique neighborhoods, walk to the top, visit Coit Tower for the murals, and then descend the Filbert Steps. Linger to view the unique architecture and views all the way.

Brick stairway leading up Telegraph Hill.

We stumbled upon this completely by chance as we were walking from Coit down to the piers and GPS plotted the route. It is beautiful along these steps. Definitely take them down, the climb up would be less amusing.

Just learned about the story of Lotta Crabtree from episode of “Death Valley Days”. season 2 episode 9. It lead me to your website to read the many wonderful reviews from your readers. As a lifelong Californian with a interest in history of our state and nation, I was so happy to read that the fountain still stands and in amazement of how the small kindness from one individual can impact the lives of citizens today in our modern times. You can bet this is one sculpture I will certainly seek out to admire myself on my next visit to the city by the bay.
