Filoli Historic House & Garden

lovely trevel
Philoli Historic House & Garden is a beautiful space that seems to have preserved the time 100 years ago. Gorgeous flowers, antique furniture, and colorful flowers that can feel the change of the seasons from the entrance catch the eye. When you enter the interior, there are furniture from 100 years ago, which makes you feel like you are traveling in time.

Golden Gate Park

This is a relatively large park near the Golden Gate Bridge, called Golden Gate Park. General tourists will not go to this attraction specially, because we are free to travel and can be more relaxed. The park environment design is unparalleled and worth checking in for sightseeing.

Half Moon Bay State Beach

泰迪小熊
Came here on September 25, 2017. There are many public beaches along Highway 1, and the Half Moon Bay area is probably the best. This is a long beach, stretching for 7 or 8 kilometers; the beach is flat and the sand is small, so the sand surface here is wide and flat. Coupled with the beautiful curve of Half Moon Bay, the whole beach is very photogenic. The only drawback is that there are few recreational facilities here, and naturally there are not many tourists. Therefore, this place is more suitable for strolling, daydreaming and sunbathing, and it is also good to take pictures of the scenery.

Stanford University

Come on September 25, 2017. As the top five universities in the United States, Stanford University must be a must-visit destination for California tourism! As a tourist attraction, Stanford University is worth visiting. The whole school is very large, the architecture of different periods is quite characteristic of the times, the scenery on the campus is also beautiful, especially under the sunny weather, it is more pleasing to the eye. Go to the Stanford Memorial Church to see the carefully designed Romanesque architecture and Byzantine style decoration, remember the kindness of the Stanford family and educate people; stroll the large lawn with flowers and feel the sunshine of California... Stanford University is a very outstanding humanistic landscape. Another impressive impression of Stanford is the spiritual outlook of students at school. The day I went was Monday afternoon, just in time for the recess, and witnessed the students coming out of the classroom, riding a bicycle and rushing to the next class of the classroom... The seriousness of the students is intuitive and real.

Lombard Street

泰迪小熊
Came on September 24, 2017. This attraction is unique, beautiful and interesting, and definitely one of the must-see attractions to visit San Francisco. Jiuqu Flower Street is actually a section of Lombard Street, located between Hyde Street and Leavenworth Street. This section is a steep slope, but it is designed to be eight hairpin bends, and the road is full of flowers. If you need to shoot the effect of Jiuqu, you must stand at the low position of Leavenworth Street. Chinese people can drive by themselves in the western United States where San Francisco is located. If you will drive in San Francisco, you may wish to experience the feeling of driving through Jiuquhua Street.

Alcatraz Island

Alcatraz Island is a small island located in San Francisco Bay, about 1.25 miles (2 kilometers) offshore from San Francisco, California. It is most famous for the federal penitentiary that operated there from 1934 to 1963.

San Francisco Museum of Modern Art

旅途花样多
Located in downtown, this museum has a modern decoration style. It has famous paintings by Picasso and other masters, as well as iconic works by Yayoi Kusama. The fifth floor (I think) is about homosexual photography, which fits the tone of San Francisco. There is an American coffee shop where you can rest and have lunch when you are tired at noon. It is worth going.

Twin Peaks

The Twin Towers are Xiamen's landmark buildings, facing the Gulangyu Island Scenic Area. Nearby are all luxury houses, which belong to the rich and the noble. It is so comfortable to sit on the Twin Towers, drink afternoon tea and enjoy the autumn sunshine.
