There is so much history in the Haight we decided it might be best to come up with a plan for seeing as much as we could. We came up with a list of places we wanted to visit, then mapped them out on Google maps to find out the best way around. It might sound like overkill, but it worked for us and we feel like we really experienced the area.
We started at Hippie Hill on the edge of the Golden Gate Park, where many of the 60’s & 70’s rock music icons like Janis Joplin, Jefferson Airplane, Jimi Hendrix, and the Grateful Dead used to have impromptu concerts in the park. Janis Joplin was known to sit under a certain tree and play her guitar. The tree is now dubbed the “Janis Joplin Tree”!
We visited the former homes of a few musicians.

And did a little shopping and sightseeing.
Saw some fantastic murals.
From there we walked to Toronado Pub for a beer. Some in the area call this place the ‘Best Dive Bar’ in San Francisco.
From there it was on to see The Painted Ladies and dinner at Horse Feather!
