I have been to similar places like Navy Pier in Chicago. But I like this place better than Navy Pier. There is something to do for all age group here. The atmosphere is really vibrant. An evening walk in this area is a really nice experience

If you want to be with wall to wall tourists, this is the place to be! There is no reason to go here as it's crowded, expensive, and you'll only see tourists there. Skip this place.

We've been here a couple of times over the years, and it is always worth the stop. We haven't been here in 15 years, but are not surprised at the number of t-shirt shops that have sprung up.

Normal sort of tourist place with lots of overpriced shops and restaurants to choose from. Public toilets and the like are bit grotty in this area as it attracts a few bums and vagrants who bring their foul habits with them but not too bad in comparison to other areas of San Francisco. Can easily fill in half a day... More
