Fisherman's Wharf is one of San Francisco 's famous attractions. It is rich in seafood. Visitors can taste San Francisco's special "Clam Chower" and big crabs in many seafood shops, which are very delicious!
After climbing Jiuquhua Street that day, we were hungry and went straight to Fisherman’s Wharf to have a feast.
We bought large crabs and "Clam Chower" in this store.
These are raw crabs
After buying them, they are processed directly in the pot
After cooking, each one is quite tempting!
The waiter in their store is very nimble with his hands.
With a few clicks, a large crab was soon split and put into a box.
This is the making process of "Clam Chowder". I don't know what it should be called when translated into Chinese. I call it "Clam Chowder". First, scoop out a piece of Big Mac bread, and the bread will immediately turn into a "bread bowl".
Then put a thick clam soup into the "bread bowl" and you're done. The bread was hard on the outside, soft on the inside, and tasted a bit sour. The clam soup is slightly salty, creamy and has a very special taste. Although the meat of big crabs is not as delicious as our Xiamen crabs, they are big and taste full of meat, so it is very enjoyable to eat.
After a delicious meal, I finally had the mood and energy to enjoy Fisherman's Wharf slowly.
There are many terminals here, each terminal has its own number.
We walked from No. 43 to Pier 39
9. The wooden plank road next to Pier
There is a super mini island next to the pier. There are only a few houses and a tower on the island, which is very exquisite.
A bunch of tourists crowded at Pier 39 to watch sea lions
The area around Fisherman's Wharf was very lively, with many artists performing on the street.
I saw local adults riding a standing electric car. The car looked like it had two hot wheels on it. It could move freely and was very suitable for city sightseeing.
This is the first time I have seen a car that can carry so many children at the same time. It also has seat belts. No wonder the children are so comfortable that they are crossing their legs! [laughing]

Saying goodbye to Fisherman's Wharf, we passed by Chinatown in San Francisco.
The streets are very narrow, and clothes are still hanging on many balconies.
San Francisco’s rail wooden cable car is very unique. People can stand outside the car, which is very cool and has a nostalgic flavor. There are ramps everywhere in San Francisco, and the cable cars don’t travel very fast, so they are very safe.
This is Union Square , the commercial center of San Francisco, known as the "Fifth Avenue" of San Francisco, with many famous brand stores nearby.
The giant heart at the entrance of Union Square is a favorite place for couples to take photos.
There was a group of cute girls dancing in Union Square
Passing by the local Apple store
San Francisco experienced a major earthquake in 1906. The earthquake and subsequent fires caused great damage to San Francisco. In view of this, buildings in San Francisco have escape ladders , and the escape ladders are generally outside the building, which is also a major feature of San Francisco.

Passed by a military cemetery with countless tombstones.
San Francisco is surrounded by the sea on three sides and has undulating hills. There are many hills in the urban area, and many buildings are built on the hills.
San Francisco has beautiful scenery and a pleasant climate. The temperature difference is small throughout the year, warm in winter and cool in summer. Many people like to live here, especially Chinese, so local housing prices are quite high. It is suitable for travel all year round, especially in the summer when it is quite cool and a thin windbreaker is still needed in June.
San Francisco is also a very tolerant city, where immigrants and cultures from all over the world blend and live in harmony. You can see the "rainbow flag" symbol of homosexuality on the road, and same-sex people can receive marriage certificates here without being discriminated against.
This is a diverse and charming city!
