walkable san francisco

san francisco is no doubt one of the most walkable cities i've ever been to, and just about now i read a news article on yahoo saying that san francisco is the most walkable city in the US according to walkscore.com, garnering a score of 86 out of 100. new york city got second place with 83.

amazing. and they are both two of my most favorite cities in the world, right next to manila. =)

for my take on walking the streets of san francisco, click here. =)

  1. One can survive in New York City without having the need to buy a car. Aside from the buses, cabs, and 24-hour subway system, one can easily walk to museums, parks, theaters, and restaurants. Truly a great place to live in. :)

  14. rochelle: thanks! oh yeah, san francisco is really a great place. i guess it was too far when you went to CA this summer, no?

    r-yo!: oo nga masarap maglakad sa pier! sa susunod try mo yung mga super steep streets dun. instant exercise!

    kyels: both states are really nice to visit, you must go there sometime. btw, san francisco is in California so you might want to start there first :D
