Twin Peaks

In a city famous for its views, this panoramic vista is not to be missed.

In Short
San Francisco truly glows in the dark, so pick a clear evening to watch it light up the night sky. At the most-traveled point, there is a direct view down Market Street, straight into downtown. Off in the distance lurks Berkeley and to the right is the industrial sprawl of South SF. Don't forget to take a look through the coin-operated binoculars for a closer view.

spectacular

You can see almost all of SF from here. The Bay Bridge, Golden Gate, Bay and Ocean. It's truly amazing, and, a great spot for visitors. I'm definitely going to bring my family up here when they visit.

The ocean and the bay

One of the few places in SF where you can see the ocean and the bay at the same time!! On a clear day, the most breathtaking view in the city.

• Pros: beautiful, good parking
• Cons: windy, tough climb

I visited San Fran last month and it was a beautiful day on Twin Peaks. It's a really amazing view of the city. Can't wait to go back!
