San Francisco is one of the Pacific Northwest's most beautiful cities, located on a hilltop peninsula overlooking the gorgeous waters of the San Francisco Bay. Explore historic landmarks such as the iconic Golden Gate Bridge, showcasing beautiful Art Deco architecture since 1937, and the notorious former federal prison of Alcatraz Island, which has been converted into a living history museum offering guided tours today. Over 82,000 acres throughout the city's metropolitan area has been protected as part of Golden Gate National Recreation Area, making the city one of America's greenest. Visitors can also ride the city's famed cable car system, dine at internationally-renowned restaurants and cafes in hip neighborhoods like the city's Mission District, or peruse cultural sites like the DeYoung Museum and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
