This time, San Francisco, the sun greeted us as stressed only its picturesque and unique character. Our trip began with a close-up look at one of the most distinctive buildings in San Francisco, which is 260 meters Transamerica Pyramid (pyramid-shaped). Her construction sparked a great deal of controversy.


Next stop is the Opera War Memorial Opera House. This building is for San Francisco's historic importance, since it was signed it in June 1945 in the United Nations Charter. As the guide told us close to the Opera House is the seat of the secretariat of the UN founding or Veterans Memorial Building.


The next steps that we set in this picturesque corner of the America that is the Mission Dolores Church - The mission, which is built in the years 1782-1791 Indians converted to Christianity. Their graves and we watched the local cemetery. Here, too, our eyes caught the graves of settlers from those years.
Our attention and admiration has also raised another very distinctive building that is San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge. It is a suspension bridge with about 2.7 km long and 27, 5 meters wide. Its height is 67 meters above sea level. At one time it was the largest suspension bridge in the world. At the foot of the bridge, we saw another very famous and beautiful brick building that is the Fort Point National Historic Site.


The next stage of our journey was another historic building is the famous Alcatraz prison. It is situated on a rocky island on the shores of the bay. The prison was once the "seat" the world-famous Al. Capone.

Very relaxing stage of our journey was the Golden Gate Park. It is the largest park in San Francisco. It takes more than 4.2 km 2


Being in San Francisco, we could not miss the biggest tourist attraction that region which is Pier 39. The name pretty mysterious right? But the rush has already explained what is Pier39. It is the largest and most visited and recommended shopping center in San Francisco. At Pier 39 are not only numerous shop windows, very colorful and inviting to buy. The Pier 39 is also the famous Oceanarium also has the world kalifornijskimi uchatkami. It's really quite an impressive sight - a herd on the shore wygrzewających prześlicznych seals. From Pier 39 we also have a panoramic view on the island of Alcatraz and Angel Island.
San Francisco, California, is also a very impressive looking building Google's headquarters - is a company that is associated with all known and one of the most popular web browsers.
Very tasty meal, consisting of highly original and beautifully decorated dishes, we ate in the famous Elephant Bar. Look inside the bar, floating in the smells and the very friendly atmosphere waiters serving us, makes me not want come out from there, but still has enough to visit.
Being in San Francisco, of course, we could not find it right in the heart of Union Square that is. This is the main commercial and cultural center of San Francisco. Sqaure Union was founded in 1850.


Indelible impressions left in us a view of returning the next day from the cruise ship Dawn Princess. The deck of this incredibly beautiful floating "miracles" more than 400 rooms and constantly changing decorations, and two spacious decks. Dawn Princess is a lot of additional services - a full luxury for very demanding.
Nearby San Francisco is the most peaceful city in California, which is across the Belmont. For some it is called a city work by any other city rich. Still others say about him that this is a city free from the pain that is not here armed robberies, "junkies" suicide. There is a calm, quiet, picturesque. Only here you can admire the early dawn of the cute little hummingbirds that spijają red nectar from beautiful flowers that are in every home.
Our steps have failed us and the other a very picturesque place in the heart of San Francisco. This place is the Yerba Buena Garden. Yerba Buena Garden is lovely, beautifully arranged lawns and terraces with a beautiful waterfall which flows down to them. Martin Luther. All around are pubs, restaurants and artistic center as well as great art scene.
Enchanted atmosphere of San Francisco also went to a giant shopping mall Levi's Jeans. Continuing the journey of the vehicle streetcar named Cable Car. It is the most typical means of transportation in the city.


Watching the beautiful metropolis of the world which is precisely what San Francisco, until it was hard to believe that this city survived a real disaster.
