San Francisco is a hilly city in Northern California surrounded on three sides by water with shorelines on both the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay. The Golden Gate Bridge is the most famous icon of the city and is a draw for many tourists. In addition, the city is known for the cable cars that travel the streets, colorful Victorian architecture, and Alcatraz Island, which is located in the bay nearby. Ocean-lovers will want to check out Fisherman's Wharf for crab stands, sea lion watching, and souvenir shopping. Pier 39 is another scenic spot that has plenty of activities and refreshments and is popular with visitors.
