North Beach, also known as Little Italy, is a well-known recreational area in San Francisco. North Beach has a particularly strong Italian vibe, with a variety of Italian cafes, pastry shops and restaurants lining the streets. North Beach was originally a barren beach north of San Francisco. Later, after continuous reclamation construction, Fisherman's Wharf appeared further north, and North Beach gradually became a seaside residential area. 1. In a leisurely afternoon, people like to find an open-air table to sit down, bask in the sun, and drink espresso, which is very pleasant. In addition to restaurants, this place is also one of the origins of the "Beat Generation" that nurtured the American rebellious spirit. If you want to understand the decadent culture at that time, you can go to the small bookstore in North Beach to find traces. 2. Intoxicating night When the night comes, North Beach becomes a noisy nightlife place. The bar is filled with swaying neon and graceful singing, and the atmosphere is intoxicating. 3. Worth recommending North Beach is also worth recommending Washington Square and St. Peter and Paul Cathedral. The square is composed of wide lawns and huge tree shades. It is a good place for citizens to take a lunch break and play. St. Peter and Paul Cathedral on the north side of the square It is the location of many classic movies, and Marilyn Monroe once held her wedding here.
