One of the world's favorite travel destinations, San Francisco is a jewel of a city with a fabulous history, gorgeous vistas, a widely varied population and an unending number of things to see and do. Below are just three of the city's noteworthy attractions; for more information on the myriad opportunities available, visit http://www.onlyinsanfrancisco.com.
San Francisco Museum of Modern Art One of the world’s most innovative museums, SFMOMA is housed in a magnificent building by the Swiss architect Mario Botta, situated next to the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. Permanent collections in architecture and design, media arts, painting and sculpture, and photography are enhanced by temporary exhibitions.
Chinatown The largest Chinatown outside Asia bustles with energy and offers a rich selection of stores and restaurants. The dim sum is divine, the entrance arch is a visual surprise, a gateway in stark contrast to the nearby financial district.
Palace of Fine Arts Exploratorium Housed within the walls of the Palace of Fine Arts, designed by Berkeley architect Bernard Maybeck in 1915, the Exploratorium is famous as a museum that overflows with interactive exhibits and experiments, allowing children (and adults) to learn about science, art and human perception.
