  • Review this attraction
  • The teeming Hispanic world, with all the accompanying noise and confusion, constitutes the Mission, home to San Francisco’s many Latinos. They have brought their culture with them – bustling taquerias , salsa clubs, Santeria shops, lively murals, and Spanish everywhere you look and listen. It’s a loud, odoriferous place, with edgy crowds dodging each other along the main drags, Mission and Valencia streets and their connecting streets from Market to Cesar Chavez (Army). Its folklórico festivals are not to be missed, especially the Carnaval.
