Oscar Wilde once said, ““It’s an odd thing, but anyone who disappears is said to be seen in San Francisco. It must be a delightful city and possess all the attractions of the next world.”

A recent tourism poll indicated visitor spending has increased 5.5 percent since 2011, with an annual average of 16.51 million visitors! While popularized by cable cars and a Petula Clark cover, San Francisco is also known for historic monuments, and some of the country’s most iconic backdrops.
