Alcatraz Island
Alcatraz Island stands isolated in San Francisco Bay, facing Fisherman's Wharf across the water. To reach the island, visitors must take a ferry from nearby Pier 33. In 1775, Spanish explorers mapping the bay named it "Isla de los Alcatraces" (Island of the Pelicans) due to the abundance of seabirds. However, this small island later became world-famous for its "devilish" reputation: from 1850, it first served as a military fortress guarding the bay entrance, then became a military prison. From 1934 to 1963, it operated as a high-security federal penitentiary housing over a thousand inmates including Al Capone. No escape attempts were ever confirmed successful. The island served as a filming location for "The Rock," and its English name inspired "Azkaban" in Harry Potter. From 1969 to 1971, a 19-month Native American occupation made it an important landmark in the American civil rights movement. Now the entire island is part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, where abandoned prison cells, old lighthouses, and weathered barracks still retain their original layout. The prison cells along the main corridor, "Broadway," are open to visitors, with permanent exhibitions recounting the island's past. Put on headphones, and the audio guide plays firsthand accounts from former guards and inmates. Between the cliffs and shrubs, seabirds like western gulls, cormorants, and black-crowned night herons nest and thrive. The blend of profound history and bay wildlife makes it one of San Francisco's most distinctive destinations.United States · San Francisco
Fisherman's Wharf
A landmark of San Francisco, Fisherman's Wharf is a strip extending from Ghirardelli Square all the way to Pier 35 and close to popular destinations such as Chinatown and the Lombard Street. This is home to a wealth of shops and restaurants and lively street shows can be seen everywhere. Famous sites such as Alcatraz Island, Golden Gate Bridge, and the Bay Bridge can also be sighted in the distance. The Fisherman's Wharf is close to the bay, so do not miss out on the fresh and delicious seafood. At Pier 39, sea lions can also be seen lying idly on rafts for a bit of sunbathing, making a most adorable scene.United States · San Francisco

Golden Gate Bridge
The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate Strait, opened to traffic in 1937 with a total length of approx. 2.7 km. It has long been regarded as a symbol of San Francisco. The Golden Gate Strait connects San Francisco Bay on one end and leads to the Pacific Ocean on the other, with the bridge spanning the strait and linking downtown San Francisco to the towns of the North Bay. The bridge's iconic international orange paint stands out strikingly. Despite San Francisco's frequent fog, even when sea mist rolls in, this vibrant orange remains clearly visible. Scenes like the intense battle between apes on the bridge in "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" and Magneto moving the entire bridge in "X-Men" have made it a familiar sight for movie fans. The location is crucial for both viewing and photographing the bridge. Fort Point on the southern side of the bridge is right beneath it, offering a chance to look up at the massive steel structure. Battery Spencer, a lookout on the western side of the northern shore, is a popular spot for capturing the bridge's full span, with the orange-red bridge, the sea, and the distant city skyline all in one frame—especially atmospheric when fog rolls in. The Vista Point observation deck near Sausalito is ideal for watching the traffic flow across the bridge. Generally, the northern shore provides expansive views and complete compositions, while the southern side offers lower angles better suited for close-up shots of the water and bridge sections. If time allows, consider renting a bike for cycling across the bridge—an experience unmatched by walking or driving, as you glide between the steel beams and ocean breeze.United States · San Francisco

Palace of Fine Arts
Palace of Fine Artsis located in the Marina District in the northern part of San Francisco, United States, and is a well-preserved historic building that attracts many visitors. The building was designed by American architect Bernard Maybeck, who drew inspiration from ancient Roman and Greek architecture, shaping the palace into an ancient ruin that seems to have weathered the passage of time. The towering dome, solemn colonnades, and a design style with a touch of imperfection give the entire structure a tranquil and poetic sense of age beyond its grandeur. Approaching the building, you can see the towering dome and elegant curved colonnades surrounding the lake, which, together with the surrounding open water, form a tranquil, scenic view. This palace is not just a historic building, but a public space that blends architectural aesthetics, natural scenery, and cultural memory.United States · San Francisco
Napa Valley
Napa Valley is a world-renowned wine region in the United States. At the Judgment of Paris, the Chardonnay from Chateau Montelena and the Cabernet Sauvignon from Stag's Leap Wine Cellars, both from the valley, outperformed several famous French wineries, establishing this valley as an internationally recognized wine region. The valley has a unique climate with warm days and cool nights. Sea fog from the bay drifts into the valley, nourishing the vineyards on the slopes, and Cabernet Sauvignon is the undisputed star here. The valley connects towns from south to north, includingNapa, Yountville, St. Helena, and Calistoga. Highway 29 and the less-traveled Silverado Trail run through the valley on the west and east sides, respectively, with endless vineyards and rolling hills along the way. Wine tasting is the main event here: Robert Mondavi Winery in Oakville is considered a pioneer of modern California winemaking; Castello di Amorosa near Calistoga is modeled after a 13th-century Tuscan castle, where you can taste wine while exploring the castle and underground cellars; Sterling Vineyards uses an aerial cable car to take visitors to a hillside tasting room, offering panoramic views of the entire valley. Visitors who aren't just here for the wine have other options: take a train with vintage Pullman cars north fromNapa, watching the vineyards glide by while dining in the restaurant car; or take a hot air balloon ride in the early morning to overlook the mist-covered valley, a favorite experience for many.Napa County · 54.1 km from Geyserville

Nice loop hike that is not very strenuous. There is no shade or cover so not recommended in the Summer heat. Sweeping views of the valley are awesome!

Really enjoyed visiting Alcatraz Island! The ferry ride over had great views of San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge. The self-guided cellhouse tour was very interesting, especially hearing the stories about the prison and its former inmates. The whole experience was well organized and definitely worth visiting if you’re in San Francisco. Highly recommended!

Fisherman's Wharf was bustling and a bit chaotic. Sea lions lay sprawled on wooden planks, howling, their fishy smell wafting from afar. Bowls of clam chowder were piping hot, served while street performers sipped. Crab stalls lined the streets, piles of red shells high; you'd crack open a claw and pop a crab into your mouth, your fingers smeared with butter. A rickshaw clanged past, tourists craning their necks to watch—nothing particularly special, just a lively, down-to-earth atmosphere.

虽然整体面积不算很大，但风景如画很有看头。整体是古罗马废墟风格，为万国博览会所建，后期改造使用延续至今，除了罗马式建筑，罗马柱可看，还可有一处喷泉池，很多很美的花花和绿植，世界各地的游客面孔。适合拍照打卡，随处都是景

Embark on a wine culture and tasting tour in a renowned wine region with an Italian guide, and even take a bottle home with you. The whole experience was incredibly enjoyable, and the Italian-style castle made for fantastic photo opportunities.
