A Contestant for the Most Magical City in the World Okay I realize I am a bit prejudiced. My candidate is San Francisco, California. As far as I have seen of the world, there is no place like the City by the Golden Gate. I have promised friends I would take them on a tour of my city to see just it highlights. And so I did a careful inventory, and found I could not keep it under 12 days. There is so much, from the Bay to the Pacific Ocean, to see in just a day's tour. To visit the ethnic sections, Fisherman's Wharf and Ghiradelli Square. To see Golden Gate Park, and Steinhart Aquarium, and the Planitarium, and the De Young Museumd takes a day. To visit the magnificence of the Pacific Ocean. To eat in each of the ethnic centers of the city takes a week. Then there are the entertainment venues. The theatre district. The nightclubs. The shows. The Palace of Fine Arts. Exploratorium. Riding a cable car. The list goes on and on. What is your candidate for one of the most Magical Cities in the World? |

Vancouver, British Columbia. SF is neat. I especially like Telegraph Ave.

Oh my... impossible to choose just one. All of my favourite cities are magical each in their own way. To name a few: Vancouver BC, London England, Venice/Florence/Rome Italy, Athens, Greece and St. Petersburg, Russia.... they are all beautiful and magical: Happiness is where we find it, but rarely where we seek it.

No, I meant Telegraph Ave. I tend to think of SF as being a good part of the Bay area. Vancouver is unique because of its setting. Ocean on one side, mountains on the other. Also its ethnic diversity.
