Golden Gate Park is nearly as iconic as the bridge it is named for. This incredibly beautiful swath of land is lush, inviting and peaceful. The park is the perfect place for a quiet outdoor picnic, scenic walk or just sitting and enjoying the exceptional views. On a larger scale, this park features 1,000 acres of gardens, meadows, lakes, and even a golf course, along with internationally recognized art and science museums. In short, the park offers something special for both locals and visitors who not only love nature, but the whole experience of being in San Francisco as well.

The Cartoon Art Museum is virtually guaranteed to put a smile on your face as you walk through it and see the nearly 6,000 original items housed in this fascinating facility. The museum received the support of Charles M. Schultz, the creator of "Peanuts," and it was with that impressive blessing that the museum transitioned from a mere idea to becoming the only collection of its kind west of the Mississippi. Located in Yerba Buena Gardens in the city's art center, this popular venue attracts cartoon and comic lovers from all over the world. In addition to the major exhibitions held yearly, the museum also features the very popular bookstore that features several unique items for sale.

Biscuits and Blues not only brings you some of the best live blues music and entertainment this side of Memphis, but it also offers some of the tastiest food that features its own brand of southern flair. The venue has earned its reputation as one of the best blues clubs in the country, as it regularly features some of the world's most famous bluesmen on its stage. And if blues isn't the only thing you're hungry for, you'll also find such inviting menu items as hot biscuits, fried catfish, and spicy chicken to satisfy your non-musical appetite, as well.
