San Francisco is one of the most famous and popular tourist destinations in China. A lot of people were eager to come here to find out the gold over 200 years ago. In the meanwhile, many movies directed by world famous directors were shot here. The following photo is the City Hall, where local government and subordinate departments work.   

The City Hall opens to the public freely without guards. Of course, tourists can enter inside freely and local people even come here to take the wedding photos.

Someone told us we could enter into the mayor office if we would like to, but it was rare to meet him.  

Here often hold many kinds of conferences and we happened to attend Disaster Resilience Summit that day.

School bus tranfered students looked very firm.

Famous flowery street with nine curves(九曲花街), but we didn't see much more flowers because it was not the right season.

The Gold Gate Bridge has been token of San Francisco since it was built in 1937 where you could see beautiful views around the bay, but it needed more maintaining.

Gold Gate Garden is another good place where local people would hike or enjoy their leisure time with their families on weekends.

Stanford University is the world famous private university. One fo my senior middle classmates we have never seen each other since we graduated over 20 years ago took me to look around it.  It has gorgeous church, shop and campus.
