Wheels of Justice

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.

People who love books love Litquake, the yearly literary festival held every fall in San Francisco. Renowned authors are on hand for lectures and book signings, and interesting panels, workshops and parties are also part of what makes Litquake such an essential event for both readers and writers of all backgrounds. One of the highlights of this event is the three-hour Lit-Crawl through the Mission District that features stops at galleries, bookstores, bars and cafes.

As anyone who's ever taken a skydive can tell you, there's nothing quite like the free fall. Instead of just imagining what it would be like, it's time to do it for yourself! And to add to your extreme sports adventure, imagine Northern California's Wine Country as your landing pad. The pros at NorCal Skydiving can make this adventure a reality. In addition to providing the necessary training and equipment, you can also get your dive recorded to share with everyone when you safely return to the ground.

Leave the work of planning an all-inclusive tour of San Francisco to the experts at San Francisco Comprehensive Shuttle Tours. This tour is regarded by many visitors as one of the best deals in town as it is the only small group shuttle tour that provides a separate tour guide (not the driver) to point out areas of interest and to answer your questions. Their two most popular packages are a 5-hour comprehensive tour with ferry cruise that includes such sites as Grace Cathedral, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Chinatown; and a two-hour tour that drives by the famous sites with no stops and includes views of Coit Tower, Crissy Field, and the financial district. Either way, you're sure to see it all without the stress of having to get there yourself!
