If you're coming to San Francisco and don't visit this part of the city you’ve missed out. San Francisco has evolved over the last 15 years (or 6 months) but this is the heart of the city. It’s Little Italy, it’s where the Beats birthed ‘cool’ and it’s full of great cafés and shops to explore. Chinatown? . . . it’s the largest in North America and the largest Chinese community outside Asia. A place where its possible to forget where you are, eat the finest Chinese cuisine and if you’re lucky catch a festival. And if your fortune cookie says “I cannot help you, for I am just a cookie” don’t despair just ask for another.

If you are looking for the parrots featured 'The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill' you'll need to keep climbing towards Coit Tower. If you want a small workout while enjoying a spectacular garden and views of the Bay Bridge this is the place. We use it to get from the North Waterfront district to North Beach or just to eat lunch on the steps. We are often asked by visitors if there is an easier way to get to Coit Tower. The short answer–no.
