When in a new city it can be hard to know the best places to sightsee! It also can be difficult to find where to get that perfect tourist gram! Enter me! Your fav Insta-obsessed bb is here to help you see the best sights and take the best pics. Here are four (of the many, many, many) beautiful places I love in San Francisco. Enjoy and gram the crap out of them!
1. Haight Street
First up is Haight Street! Full of history, this street is the prefect tourist destination in general. The center of the Summer of Love moment, home of the Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream Shop, and home to the most amazing taxidermy store I've ever experienced. The Haight is also full of beautiful murals and buildings to gram. These fnnch lips are my favs, but if you spend a day along Haight street walking from park to park you'll find everything you're looking for and then some!
2. Palace of Fine Arts
The Palace of Fine Arts was originally built in 1915 for the World's Fair, but it was so pretty they decided it would be a crime to remove it after the fair was done. Thank Goodness! It is one of the prettiest places in San Francisco for sure. Any given day you can find prom parties, wedding parties, engaged couples, and Insta baddies taking pictures here. Don't let it's popularity detour you! You want these dreamy pics in your life and on your feed.
3. Mural Alley in the Mission
The Clarion Alley Mural Project was established in 1992 by local artists as a way to amplify the artistic voices of marginalized groups by giving them space to produce aesthetically diverse public art. This alley, and several others around the Mission, are filled with beautiful and moving pieces by a broad range of artists. Come for the pics, but stay for the beautiful art.
4. China Beach
Sadly China Beach is not the Princess Diaries beach, but not sadly you can't beat the view and privacy this beach provides! You can see the dang Golden Gate Bridge! Hike down to this beach with a packed lunch, your camera, and someone you love to have a truly delightful afternoon.
If you try any of these grams be sure to tag me! I want to see! I hope you enjoy seeing these sights and taking these pics, but of course, in the end, I think we all learned that the only Instagrams that matter are the ones you post inside your heart. ;)
