Mission District (pass by)

The most vibrant and colorful neighborhood in San Francisco! An open-air festival of colours between delicately crafted Victorian façades and murals that brighten every street. We stroll down Dolores Street, before diving into the artistic effervescence of the Latin Quarter: giant frescoes and powerful graffiti transform the walls into a true open-air gallery. Then head to Valencia Street, the busiest and most gourmet thoroughfare in Mission, between atypical shops, thrift stores and independent bookstores. A little further afield, the Liberty Hill Historic District unveils a series of charming Victorian villas and cottages, a real treat for lovers of beautiful stones. To finish off in style, head to Dolores Park: perched high, it offers a breathtaking view of San Francisco and the downtown skyscrapers in the distance: the perfect spot to blow and immortalize the view.
