第一天:上午到达旧金山机场:中午时间取车,租车公司在比较之后决定用 enterprise在整个北加州的游玩期间,我们以圣何塞San Jose为大本营,除了去大苏尔的那天晚上。因为第一天到达时略有疲倦,所以只去了斯坦福一站,斯坦福的访客中心地址为:Stanford Visitor Center, 295 Galvez Street, Stanford, California 94305-6104值得注意的是免费参观团在 下午3:15关闭,并且因为时间和季节的关系,最好现在斯坦福的官网上查找一下tour的时间和集合地点。在参观完斯坦福后,可以再附近转一转,有很多超大名牌。第二天:旧金山(在旧金山开车会充分考验车技,stop sign会直接把我逼疯啊,那么陡的坡就直直的开上去,中间还遇到那么多的stop sign)第一站:金门公园(这里可以很好地看到金门大桥),停车费用周中为2.5美金每小时,周末为3美金。第二站:金门大桥可以享受一下在金门大桥云里雾里开车的感觉第三站:艺术宫(当初为了世博会所建立)Palace of fine arts, near golden gate bridgeDue to contracture, parking lot is not easy to find. Nearby Parking lot:Exploratorium parking (lot is next to the St. Francis Yacht Club). If you pass the lot, you’ll see signs on the right for additional parking at Crissy Field.At first glance this stunning, rosy rococo palace seems to be from another world, and indeed, it’s the sole survivor of the many tinted-plaster structures built for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition, the world’s fair. Have lunch第四站:九曲花街The block-long “Crookedest Street in the World” makes eight switchbacks down the east face of Russian Hill between Hyde and Leavenworth streets. You take in super views of North Beach and Coit Tower whether you walk or drive-though. 九曲花街,正式名稱為倫巴底街(Lombard Street),是美国加州三藩市一條東西方向貫穿Presidio區及Cow Hollow區的街道,其部份路段(從Broderick街到Van Ness大道)更是美國国道101的幹線,該街道一直向東伸展,經過俄羅斯山、電報山後,盡頭是三藩市海傍的Embarcadero區域。在倫巴底街上最為人所熟知的路段莫過於為在俄羅斯山上、橫貫Hyde和Leavenworth之間的一段,這起因於它是全美國最彎曲的一條街道,短短一段路上一共有八個急彎,只允許由Hyde街駛向Leavenworth街、下坡方向的單向通行,而Powell-Hyde線纜車則途經此路段的起點(也就是最高點的街口位置)。這段坡度非常陡的街道原本是直線通行的,但考虑到行車安全,1923年這路段被改成目前所見的彎曲迂迴情況,利用長度換取空間減緩沿線的坡度大小,并且用砖块铺成路面增加摩擦力。 第五站:渔人码头, Fisherman’s WharfIt may be one of the city’s best-known attractions, but the wharf is a no-go zone for most locals, who shy away from the difficult parking, overpriced food, and cheesy shops at third-rate shopping centers.第六站: Macondray Lane .Taking Cable Cars from Fisherman’s Wharf to Macondray Lane. Powell-Hyde line.San Francisco has no shortage of impressive, grand homes, but it’s tiny fairy-tale lanes that make most folks want to move here, and Macondray Land is the quintessential hidden garden. 第七站, Pier 39.The city’s most popular waterfront attraction draws millions of visitors each year who come to browse through its vertiginous array of shops and concessions hawking every conceivable form of souvenir. 第三天:UC Berkeley大学,晚上在奥克兰看NBA球赛第一站:当然是 UC Berkeley:当然了这里的tour是免费的,但还是要看好时间和集合的地点。如果能赶在open day去看,则会感受到美国的校园开放式文化。第二站: 旧金山的中国城,当然是为了吃午饭,饭后可以在 Union Square附近转转Have a nice afternoon.第三站:市政府 City Hall:1 Dr. Carlton B.Goodlett Place, San Francisco, CAThis imposing 1915 structure with its massive gold-leaf dome-higher than the U.S. Capitol’s---is about as close to a palace as you’re going to get in San Francisco. 第四站:日本城Japantown. 没有太多的东西可以看,可以忽略第五站: Castro Street,同性恋街429 Castro Street San Francisco, CA 94114-2019
第六站:我们的奥克兰,去看金州勇士的球赛。球票可以再stubhub上面购买,当时我就买到了几美金的球票 第四天:酒庄 Napa Valley Napa Valley rules the roost of American wine production.
