San Francisco Map

Flanked on the west by the Pacific Ocean and the north and east by the San Francisco Bay, SFO straddles the Coast Range south of where the Golden Gate is located. With the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers close by, the city has elevations to the east, the Golden Gate to the north and San Francisco Bay to the east. The San Francisco map will show the peaks of Mount Davidson and Mouth Sutro in the south. The Bay area consists of San Francisco and Oakland, Berkeley and San Jose. Across the Golden Bridge, you will find Wine Country and Marin County.

The city map of San Francisco shows the Embarcadero - the broad esplanade stretching along the northern and eastern shoreline. The financial District, China Town, Nob Hill and Japan Town are some of the city's busy areas. Stroll along Fisherman's Wharf or along Lombard Street. Browse through the shopping paradise at Union Square or hobnob with the swanky crowd at Civic Center, Russian Hill and Nob Hill. The SoMa is home to clubs and bars while the Castro is the center of gay community. Find the green spots of San Francisco - Golden Gate Park, Lincoln Park and Presidio in the Haight Ashbury area.
