The Best of NileGuide

The Transamerica Pyramid is a perfect landmark to reference as you're roaming the streets downtown. Central to many major attractions in San Francisco, it's a peaceful spot to hang out, especially in the adjacent Redwood Park. This oasis in the middle of the Financial District is filled with tall Sequoia redwood trees of the coastal variety. On weekdays, locals soak up the sun on the many scattered benches. Fountains and greenery aid in the relaxation of office workers seeking a break from their cubicles.
Chinatown is right up the hill and boasts many alleys ripe for hours of exploration. One good stop is the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory, where they make the tiny after dinner snacks right before your eyes and give away free samples.
