๐ San Francisco Citywalk: Turning Streets into Movie Scenes ๐ฌ
San Francisco has always been one of my favorite cities โ every street corner holds a surprise. Today Iโm sharing some perfect spots for a half-day photo walk! ๐ Union Square โ Underground parking available๐ ๐ Powell Street ๐ Cable Car Turnaround Powell St โ The starting point of the iconic cable car line ๐ Stockton Street โ Tunnel entrance toward Chinatown ๐ Phelan Building โ The โFlatironโ of Market Street ๐ Columbus Tower โ Located on Columbus Ave๐ ๐ Transamerica Pyramid ๐ SFMTA - North Beach Garage โ Take the elevator to the rooftop parking lot๐ A half-day stroll from Union Square to Chinatown lets you shoot from afternoon till sunset. ๐โ Start at Union Square. On Powell Street, you can capture cable cars climbing up the hill. On the other side, Stockton Street leads to the tunnel into Chinatown โ both the tunnel and the bright yellow staircase beside it offer strong color contrasts and great frames.๐ ๐ฎ Chinatown is full of life and character. Beyond the vibrant streets, the top floor of the North Beach Garage offers a stunning elevated view: modern skyscrapers like the Transamerica Pyramid and Salesforce Tower stand behind traditional Chinatown buildings. Stay till evening for a cyberpunk-esque scene! Nearby Columbus Avenue is also photogenic โ the patina-green Columbus Tower anchors the street with the Transamerica Pyramid visible in the distance. ๐ After sunset, the streets light up with a mix of warm and cool tones. Chinatown is quieter at night, with distinctive bamboo-style green streetlights and lantern-shaped lamps. Some shops stay lit, and the display window of City Lights Bookshelf is filled with books โ a perfect ending to a cinematic walk. #SanFrancisco#BayArea#WeekendsInTheBay#Citywalk#FilmPhotography
