Bridges of San Francisco
San Francisco has been designated one of the most romantic cities in America. Wouldn’t you like to find out why? Could it have something to do with the mild climate, the stunning picturesque Golden Gate Bridge, or its beautiful beaches that are great for taking strolls at sunset hand in hand. There are many parks where romantic couples can walk, hike, bike, and simply enjoy being together. In addition to these activities, there are other ways in which to enjoy the great outdoors of San Francisco as a couple. You could take a sunset cruise in the San Francisco Bay to make a very romantic night of it.
If you want to have a truly luxurious experience, you could schedule a couples massage at one of the many day spas in the area. This is an experience that neither of you would be likely to forget anytime soon. While there are spas across the country, there are quite possibly as many spas as there are Starbuck’s in the city of San Francisco so you can be a lot more selective in the one you choose.
Another romantic thing to do while vacationing in San Francisco is to tour the various vineyards in the area. While San Francisco is not literally part of wine country, it is only a stone’s throw away from some of the most famous vineyards in America. It would be a terrible to come so close and not tour these American treasures. Check with the wineries you want to visit ahead of time, as some require appointments for tours. Rest assured that visiting the beautiful countryside and enjoying the tasting of various wines will make for quite the romantic outing. Be sure to taste responsibly.

Still need some romantic activities? Have you ever thought about a picnic in Golden Gate Park? After your picnic, perhaps you would like to rent a rowboat or bicycles to take a trip around the lake. Use your imagination and give into your sense of romance. Walk into a flower shop and buy every daisy in the store (that may be a little dramatic, but you get the picture). Have you ever noticed that the most romantic things that happen are frequently not planned? Spontaneous spur of the moment gestures often touch your heart far more than any contrived venture ever could.
Take your loved one to the Equinox a revolving restaurant and bar at the top of the Hyatt Regency Hotel. While the dining experience can be pricey, the spectacular view will take some of the sting out of the cost of the meal. Remember this is all for romance and is there really a price that is too high to pay?

If either of you have the slightest interest in art, San Francisco is full of museums and galleries that could appeal to your artistic nature and provide plenty of places to leisurely browse and enjoy the art. Even if you aren’t usually a fan of galleries, you may actually surprise yourself by liking the cultural experience you find in this diverse city.
Any trip to San Francisco would not be complete if it didn’t include a trip to either Fisherman’s Wharf, China Town, or Little Italy. These areas provide great food, beautiful and interesting sites, as well as a taste of cultural diversity that is not to be found everywhere. It would be like traveling to New Orleans and not visiting the French Quarter. It would not be too much to devote one entire day of your trip to one of these places if not each of them. Fisherman’s Wharf is by far my favorite to visit for the sights and sounds, but both China Town and Little Italy have great things to offer as well. Plus, the seafood and other cuisine is too good to pass up without at least giving it serious thought.
To enjoy romance you may have to be in that state of mind, but with a city like San Francisco, it’s just much easier to get to that mental place. Take a trip with your beloved and see if you agree that San Francisco is every good thing that people say about it and more.
