San Francisco: Mission District Walking Tour

Description

Explore the history of San Francisco's Mission District

The tour kicks off at Mission San Francisco de Asis, also known as Mission Dolores, one of the oldest buildings in San Francisco. This chapel houses exclusive religious art, and we'll delve into its rich history. You can enjoy its tranquil gardens and explore the only cemetery within the city limits. Just a short two blocks away lies Mission Dolores Park, once a Jewish Cemetery and now one of the most popular and bustling parks in San Francisco. During the spring and summer months, the grass is adorned with blankets as locals come together for community and recreational activities. As we move through the park, we'll pass by Father Hidalgo's statue and head towards the "Golden Fire Hydrant" at Church St. & 20th. This fire hydrant was the sole functioning hydrant during the 1906 earthquake and fire, saving the Mission from destruction. Its elevated location offers a fantastic view of the city.
