Castro District, San Francisco


Castro Street Fair

If you’re gay, you probably already know about San Francisco’s Castro District, the center of the city’s gay community.  Castro Street runs right thru the district, lined with interesting shops, restaurants and bars, and lots of rainbow flags.

Even if you’re not gay, you’ll be welcomed and treated well here.  You can enjoy the beautiful Victorian architecture in this historic district.  Don’t miss the ornate facade of the Castro theater, where you can watch classic art films.

You’ll find gay bookstores, fetish shops, coffee shops, and much more here. 

During Gay Pride week, thousands turn out in the Castro for Pink Saturday, a separate celebration held in the Castro on Saturday night of SF Pride.
