: C is for Chinatown! 🏮 San Francisco’s Chinatown is one of the oldest and most vibrant in the world, full of history, culture, and delicious food. Here are my top 3 things to do in Chinatown: 1️⃣ Visit the oldest dim sum restaurant – Hang Ah Tea Room 🥢 This historic spot has been serving dim sum since 1920! It’s a cozy hidden gem where you can enjoy authentic dishes and rich cultural vibes. 2️⃣ Stop by the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory 🥠 Watch fortune cookies being handmade at this iconic factory tucked in Ross Alley. You can sample fresh cookies (free of charge!) and even get customized fortunes for a fun keepsake. 3️⃣ Try $1 Fortune Teller Machines 🔮 Chinatown has a few vintage fortune teller machines where you can have your fortune told for just $1. It’s such a fun, quirky experience, and keeping your reading makes for a unique souvenir! Chinatown is full of charm, with so much to explore beyond these top spots. From colorful lantern-lined streets to vibrant street art and busy markets, you’ll always find something new to discover here. Other C spots in San Francisco to explore: - Coit Tower – Stunning panoramic city views from this art deco landmark. - Crissy Field – A perfect spot for a picnic with breathtaking views of the Golden Gate Bridge. - California Academy of Sciences – A world-class museum with an aquarium, planetarium, and rainforest dome. - Clarion Alley – A vibrant mural-filled street showcasing local artistry and activism. -Camera Obscura – A hidden gem at the Cliff House that offers a 360° optical illusion of the surrounding area, giving you a unique perspective of Ocean Beach and the Pacific Need help in thinking about a spot in San Francisco with D?
