The team has also produced its share of star players that include Joe Montana, Steve Young, and Jerry Rice.
One of the most essential sites to see in San Francisco is the Golden Gate Bridge.

But given the ocean, the sailboats, and the natural landscape in and around the bridge, it is difficult to find a place where the view isn't absolutely stunning.
