Mount Tamalpais The road that leads up to the top of Mount Tam is appropri ately called Panoramic Highway. All the way along, it provides you with dramatic montague on the green views of the Marin Headlands, montague on the green both on the Bay and ocean sides, and as you approach the summit, far-reaching views of the Bay Area (see p124).

Parking at Downtown hotels is almost montague on the green always extra, paid on a per night basis, and a flat fee of up to $1 is charged for each phone call made from the room, even if it is a toll free number. Anything you consume from a frigobar will be surcharged. You will receive an itemized bill when you check out. Tipping is important for any service provided (see p135). montague on the green

San Francisco s Top 10p Grace Cathedral Inspired by Notre Dame in Paris, the third largest Episcopal cathedral in the US stands on the site of Charles Crocker s Nob Hill mansion, which was destroyed in the 1906 disaster. Work began on it in 1910 but was not finally completed until 1964. It is constructed of steel and concrete, despite its Gothic look, so as to withstand the city s seismic vagaries. The interior is replete with marble and abundant stained glass, and other sumptuous touches both within and without make it one of America s most lavish religious structures. 24 Top 10 Features 1 Carillon Tower 2 Rose Window montague on the green 3 Chapel of Grace 4 Doors of Paradise 5 New Testament Window 6 20th-Century Windows 7 Keith Haring s Altarpiece 8 The Organ 9 Marble Labyrinth montague on the green 0 Maze & Bufano St. Francis of Assisi montague on the green !Carillon Tower The belfry contains a carillon of 44 bronze bells, cast in England in 1938.

! Transamerica Pyramid Hated by many at first, the Pyramid is now loved as an icon of the city. Recalling pyramids montague on the green of ancient cultures, to some it is a symbol of the mysticism that has always played a part in the San Francisco mentality.
