Numerous films like the Flubber, Bicentennial Man and many more have been shot here in the old aircraft hangars, that serve as great sound studios.

There are so few Loehman's left in the US, but it's my absolute fav for shopping - an upscale Marshall's or TJ Maxx. Definitely a mission, a quest, a treasure hunt

This San Francisco landmark features some of Fisherman's Wharf's best shopping and attractions. Ride the carousel or watch the sea lions. There are more than 25 one-of-a-kind gift stores that carry automobile, Hollywood, and rock 'n' roll memorabilia, as well as flags of the world, Russian dolls, collectible knives, hammocks, kites, and more. But that's not all. You will find more than 30 more stores, including the famous Na Hoku to shop for clothing, jewelry and toys. It is a great place to pick up high-end San Francisco souvenirs. Credit card acceptance varies by store. Pier 39 is a magnet for locals and tourists for many reasons, including their nearly year-round calendar of special attractions for the whole family like the Tulipmania tulip festival held in late February on both levels of pier 39 or the Holiday Tree Lighting in November.

My five-year-old daughter loved visiting a tiny fortune cookie bakery "factory" that offered free samples of traditional as well as chocolate flavored fortune cookies. She also loved browsing in the shops and was greeted by friendly and welcoming shop keepers who were ready and willing to recruit young shoppers by showing her a variety of goods including, fans, traditional Chinese pyjamas as well as satin coin purses and special easy-to-use chopsticks for kids called "cheaters" which are connected at the top and work like miniature tongs.
