Golden Gate Park

This is a relatively large park near the Golden Gate Bridge, called Golden Gate Park. Most tourists will not go to this attraction specifically, but since we are traveling independently, we can visit it in a more relaxed manner. The environment design of this park is unparalleled and it is worth checking out.

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.

Lombard Street

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.

Golden Gate Bridge

Came on September 24, 2017. The Golden Gate Bridge is a landmark of San Francisco and a well-known attraction in the United States. As long as you come to San Francisco, you have to come to the Golden Gate Bridge to punch in. Now China has more majestic bridges than the Golden Gate Bridge, so in fact, take a photo of tourists "to this tour" near the Golden Gate Bridge. The best photo spot should be the Torpedo Wharf area on the southeast side of the bridge, and try to go as early as possible, otherwise when the sunset is slanting, the photos are all backlit.

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.

Very convenient, just verify the QR code on the bus, much cheaper than buying on site. The route is also better, arrange the itinerary, and then start to appreciate the beauty of San Francisco!
