One minor correction Catch22 - I think the picture titled UN Plaza is actually the court house next to the City Hall. UN Plaza is a few blocks down the Market street between 7th and 8th street.
In the Union Square picture, the bright red lights on the top left are of the Starlight room in St. Francis hotel. It's a dance bar with live music in the night and the dance floor is all floor to ceiling glass walls so you get spectacular views of the city in the night. Pranav |

In the last picture of fisherman's wharf the dark building in the background (right of Trans Am pyramid) is the Bank of Americal building. On the top floor (52nd I think) is the Carnelian Room restaurant. Again, great place to have a few drinks or dinner. Expensive but the view is worth it!

Lovely pictures, catch, they make me appreciate that city even more. Glad you found Lombard Street (crookedest street) and the cable cars.

Very nice pics indeed. SF is city you fall in love with. That sculpture is a fountain you can go walk inside of
The stick in Gandhiji's hand used to be broken once - vandalized and glasses missing. I think they have fixed it now. Happy to see that. Did you get any pics of Coit tower? You can see it from the Port of SF walk way. A friend of mine recently got married there. Actually I see it, its in the second to last pic thats posted above this post. Btw, what kind of camera do you have? |

Beautiful place! I fell in love with this place as soon as I stepped into this beautiful city. Out of all the places in the world where I have been, I really enjoyed my life in San Francisco. If I ever in future have a chance, I will definitely book for my vacation in San Francisco and the surrounding cities of it.

I lived in San Francisco for 3 and half years of my life. Its been a wonderful experience, my office was at Howard Street in the downtown.
PIER39, is where I used to have my lunch, as it was very close to my office. I could see a breathtaking view of ocean from my desk. _______________________________________________________________________________
