Sorted by distance from the start of north beach: the old italian quarter. Good for stitching together a longer day.

The Filbert Steps through the Grace Marchant gardens, the wild parrots, and the murals inside Coit Tower.

The grand hotels, Grace Cathedral and its labyrinth, the cable cars crossing, and the bay laid out below.

The Dragon Gate, the herb shops of Stockton, the fortune-cookie alley, and the painted balconies of Grant.

The downtown towers, the Transamerica Pyramid and its redwood grove, and the brick alleys of Jackson Square.
