12/2006: San Francisco: 'shopping and more shopping...'
Forget New York, San Francisco has shopping in spades – and nice weather. Most of it is conveniently situated around Union Square in Downtown. All the big New York department stores are represented including Saks, Tiffanys, Maceys, Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdales. The recently extended Westgate Shopping Centre on Market Street has hundreds of shops and restaurants.
Tip: the food court on the lower ground floor does a great, and inexpensive range of takeaways from Vietnamese to Thai, American and Italian and is open until 9pm.
Levi Jeans originated in San Francisco in the 1850s and at Levi Strauss & Co on Battery Street you can view a display of vintage jeans or alternatively buy your own from the huge store at Union Square.
