The Palace of Fine Arts is one of San Francisco's most historic and stunning attractions. Originally built in 1915 for the Panama Pacific Exposition, this famous landmark began to show signs of wear and was recreated in cast concrete in the 1960s to preserve its classic style and essence. The inviting rotunda was preserved in its reconstruction, and the structure is now a popular site for concerts and various other types of performances that still echo with the Palace's regal history.

The Asian culture is a vital part of San Francisco's identity. To celebrate the cultural contributions, you can get a deeper and quite colorful view when you visit the Asian Art Museum. This museum is one of the largest venues in the world devoted entirely to Asian art. When you enter the venue, you will be struck by the incredible variety of pieces which number to over 15,000. Every one of these exhibits span nearly 6,000 years of history. The sheer depth and breadth of the art presented here is a sweeping introduction to Asia's major cultures as well as those of India, Tibet, China, Japan and Korea.

In a world where even "reality TV" seems staged, it's nice to know that the fine art of comedy improv is alive and well with Chicken Scratch. This group of highly skilled comedians put on a show unlike any other, and they have consistently won rave reviews for their hilariously unpredictable improv games to even making up their own rap songs! After seeing Chicken Scratch perform, you'll know that their mission of "slaughtering the world's evil with laughter" has been successfully accomplished.
