One of San Francisco’s most well-known neighborhoods, Alamo Square is a famous area with unbeatable views of San Francisco’s skyline and Victorian architecture. Alamo Square Park stands as the neighborhood’s focal point and most memorable attraction.

What’s so memorable about it? Not only does it boast city views, but it offers the iconic views of San Fran’s Victorian homes, known as the Painted Ladies. These historic houses served as the backdrop for the hit show “Full House,” and many other movies and TV shows. With paved walking trails and shaded lawns, there’s no better place in the city to enjoy skyline views and an afternoon picnic.

Throughout the years, this neighborhood has maintained its Victorian architecture and west coast charm.
