Visit San Francisco: San Francisco Carousel at PIER 39

Towards the end of PIER 39 is the San Francisco Carousel.

Handcrafted in Italy, the two-level carousel is painted with famous San Francisco landmarks (Painted Ladies, Chinatown Dragon Gate, Alcatraz Island, Golden Gate Bridge, etc.),


My kids and husband found colorful, adorned animals to sit on at the top level, where you can get great views of the busy pier.  I went up to the top level too, but because carousels make me queasy, I sat on a bench and closed my eyes while the carousel went around and around.


Adorned with over a thousand lights, I bet the carousel looks amazing at night.

When visiting PIER 39 while in San Francisco, take the kids for a spin on the San Francisco Carousel!
