San Francisco evokes visions of the Golden Gate Bridge, iconic cable cars, Fisherman’s Wharf, and Alcatraz. As the 16th largest US city by population and the 5th largest in California, it’s a hub for innovation.
Headquarters of major companies like Twitter, Airbnb, Levi’s, Gap, and Dropbox thrive here. Founded by Spanish colonists in 1776, it boasts a rich history rooted in the Presidio de San Francisco and Mission San Francisco de Asis. The Gold Rush of 1849 fuelled growth, though the 1906 earthquake devastated the city, it emerged stronger, rebuilding most of its quarters.
