Map of San Francisco  

Tourism  
San Francisco's diversity is perhaps most evident in its neighborhoods. The City's restaurants, shops, theaters, art galleries, museums and, above all, its people hold the key to unique visitor experiences.

San Francisco' s widest street, Van Ness Avenue, runs straight down the middle of Civic Center, a Beaux Arts architectural wonder where The City's symphony, opera and ballet dazzle audiences. One of the area's crown jewels, the War Memorial Opera House, is one of the world's greatest opera houses.
