General Information
Top of San Francisco Categories
About San FranciscoSan Francisco, athe \"City by the Bay\", is only 49 Square miles yet is made up of many vastly different neighborhoods and terrain. Getting around to all the different sites can be a challenge for anyone, however most would agree not to rent a car. Parking is extremely difficult and can be quite expensive. There are a myriad of parking signs on the streets, which can be rather complicated to understand. Vehicles displaying placards can be ticketed and towed if parked improperly. Wheelchair riders can get to most sightseeing spots by wheeling, however depending on your route, you\'ll likely encounter steep hills. The underground trains, most buses, and plenty of curbcuts make getting around very easy. Ramped taxis are also available. See transportation. A word of caution: San Franciscans are notorious for running red lights so wait a little before crossing the street. \"The coldest winter I ever spent was one summer in San Francisco\", is a quote often attributed to Mark Twain. Truth is, nobody knows who really said it. Regardless of its origins, do take the advice seriously. Unlike most places, summers in San Francisco are unpredictable and often cool and foggy. The best weather months are April, May, and September through November. The rainy season is December through March. The best clothes to pack are things that can be layered. One part of the city can be basking in the sun while another part is covered in fog. Visit the San Francisco Visitor Information Center, Lower level, Hallidie Plaza, 900 Market. The elevator is located on Market St. near Mason St. or check their web site.www.sfvisitor.org
