Founded in 1776, Mission Dolores (otherwise known as Mision San Francisco de Asis) was the first church in San Francisco and is now the oldest building in the city. Made famous in the film "Vertigo". Take BART to 16th and Mission station - walk 2.5 blocks west. Or take any underground Muni that stops at Church Street station (@ Market), walk two blocks south and two blocks east.

Large park on the border of San Francisco's Mission and Castro districts. Tasty treats nearby (Dolores Park Cafe at 18th and Dolores, Tartine Bakery at 18th and Guerrero, Bi-Rite Creamery and Bakeshop on 18th between Dolores and Guerrero). Usually one of the warmest parts of the city, this park is popular for its playground, tennis courts, and for just laying on the grass. Get here via BART (walk from 16th and Mission station), or Muni (J-Church to 18th and Church, #22 to 16th and Dolores, #33 to 18th and Dolores)

Beautiful views of the city from here.

Dolores Park is located in the Mission District, and it is not surprising that the park is surrounded by several churches in the Spanish missionary style. Dolores Park has six tennis courts and one basketball court, as well as soccer fields and open grass areas. A reflection of the Mission's diversity, Dolores Park has held political rallies, festivals, Aztec ceremonial dances, and Cinco De Mayo celebrations since the 1960s.
