Knowing that Alcatraz Island is a movie left a deep impression on me, but I always feel that the movie is fictional, just go to San Francisco to drive, the car drove up a rugged steep slope and parked at a traffic light, suddenly saw an island in the sea, exactly the same as in the movie, It's very shocking.

The most scenic drive in CA with a perfect view of the vast ocean. It’s a refreshing treat to the eyes and the soul to drive along the 17 miles drive along the bay. make sure tyt you tie your hair well as they would be all over the place due to the strong wind.

I highly recommend visiting Muir Woods National Park. This beautiful nature reserve has spectacular mahogany trees and stunning views. The trail passes through streams and hills, providing a perfect place for travelers to relax and explore. The visitor center also offers a wealth of historical and cultural information. It is a must-visit natural resort.

The Twin Peaks Tower is a landmark building in Xiamen. Facing Gulangyu Scenic Area, there are luxury houses nearby. It is not rich or expensive. Especially sitting on the Twin Peaks and drinking afternoon tea to enjoy the autumn sun is really comfortable.

If you like hiking...if you like hiking outdoors then this is a must. It is suitable for all different types of hikers, beginners. When you come here, bring the right equipment and lots of water. This is the place where Los Angeles is best known for its natural environment.
