What interesting places to visit?
Based on positive reviews, guests of San Francisco should visit the Exploratorium Museum (those who visit the South Gallery will be able to touch communicating vessels, clock mechanisms and other exhibits with their hands, and the Central Gallery is interesting for its monochromatic room, where even the brightest colors “transform” in black and white) and the Museum of Modern Art (guests will be offered to look at at least 29,000 works of art of the 19th and 21st centuries; having examined the museum funds, it is worth taking a closer look at the building itself - a futuristic structure surrounded by a park with sculptures of contemporary American sculptors exhibited there).
The Coit Tower, installed at the top of Telegraph Hill (together with it, the height reaches 150 m), acts as an excellent observation deck, which can be reached by bus number 39.
