There are so many beautiful old buildings—many siting on top of big hills, offering great views of the city, the ocean, and the Golden Gate Bridge. First impression My hotel is near downtown，in the Mission District，one of the oldest parts of the city. Many of the people living here are from Mexico or Central America. This district used to be a poor area of town，but is now a centre for art，music，and food. In fact，an art movement called the “Mission School” started here. It’s influenced by graffiti art and comic art. I walked around looking at the street art for a few hours. It was quite modern and lively.
