SAN FRANCISCO
San Francisco is in the State of California in the west of the United States.
It is near the Pacific Ocean. People think it is the capital of California, but it
isn't. First, people from Spain lived there. Today, Austrians, Italians,
Chinese and others live in the city with Americans.
The Chinese live in Chinatown. There are many Chinese restaurants there.
The houses, post boxes and telephones in the streets are very interesting. This
part of the town is exactly like China.
Fisherman's Wharf is another place where tourists want to go. You can
find a table in a nice little restaurant near the sea there. You can eat sea food
and look at the Golden Gate Bridge. You can watch the ships passing under it
and the cars crossing it. The Golden Gate Bridge is the symbol of San
After you finish your meal, you can take a boat trip to Alcatraz. Alcatraz
was a famous prison between 1866 and 1920, but only tourists go there now.
San Francisco is different from other American cities. It is more European.
The sun always shines there and there are a lot of things you can do at night -
you can go to the nightclubs, discos, restaurants, cinemas and theatres.
That's why a lot of young people want to live in San Francisco.
