San Francisco is an exciting and beautiful city in the USA. It rises on the peninsula (半岛) between the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay (海湾) in Western California. The strain between these two bodies of water is known as the Golden Gate, over which lies the world-famous Golden Gate Bridge.
With much of the West Coast’s import and export trade, the city is often regarded as the gateway to the Far East.
The weather is mild. Even during September, the warmest month, the temperature seldom rises above 21℃. In winter it seldom, if not never, drops below freezing point. The city’s fogs are well known. But 66% of the daylight hours bring sunshine.
The people of the city came from all over the world. More than 60,000 of its citizens are of Chinese origin.
Besides the great Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco has many other places of interest such as the China town — the largest in the USA, the original campus of the University of California, the American Conservatory (音乐学校) Theatre, and the Golden Gate Park, one of the most beautiful parks in the world.
