Things to do in San Franciosco - Golden Gate Park, Botanical Garden #UrbanTrekUSATips

This #UrbanTrekUSATips by Urban Trek USA small group tours in San Francisco. No more than 7 people to provide the best San Francisco walking tour & city tour experience. Why just simply visit when you can experience it - San Francisco.

As a continuation to the post I did about Stow Lake on Dec. 10, 2018 (here) of things to do in San Francisco, the Botanical Garden in Golden Gate Park is another favorite of mine.  A lot of people think of the Japanese Garden when visiting the park. In my opinion, especially if I have to spend money , the Botanical Garden is better. The Botanical Garden consists of 55 acres of plants, flowers, trees, beautiful scenery and information about the different regions of the world.

Things to do in San Francisco - Golden Gate Park, Stow Lake #UrbanTrekUSATips

This #UrbanTrekUSATips by Urban Trek USA a SMALL GROUP San Francisco walking tour & city tour. Best city tour to get an IMMERSIVE San Francisco EXPERIENCE. Why just simply visit when you can experience it - San Francisco.

Golden Gate Park is a huge park with so many places with beautiful scenery and one of the best things to do in San Francisco. My next postings will be of my favorite places in Golden Gate Park.

My favorite place in the park is Stow Lake. It is a man-made lake and in the middle of the lake is Strawberry Hill. Stow Lake makes me feel relaxed whenever I visit. It's a good place for strolling or boating or hiking up Strawberry Hill.

If you want to go boating around the Stow Lake, you can rent row boats and paddle boats at the Boathouse. You can also get drinks and snacks at the Boathouse.

In the middle of Stow Lake is Strawberry Hill. Pretty nice view at the top. There is a path and stairs to get to the top. I normally take the path up and take the stairs down because taking the path up the hill gives me a better appreciation of the scenery.
