Unless money is not an issue for you, going through a travel agency could also be costly and many times many of you would say, "I wanted to see more of blah blah blah but I did not have enough time because . . . ."

Wouldn't it be nice if you could have some idea of any tourist attractions of place you are visiting?

Some of resources you could find are books and internet. Probably you could borrow a travel book from a library near you. Or probably buy a brand new travel book from nearest bookstore. But just make sure that those books are updated, otherwise, you might miss new attractions.

Day or night, weekday or weekend area is always "jumpin". People come from all over to dine, shop, visit art galleries, go to movies, go dancing, listen to jazz and other types of music, be entertained by street preformers and most of all to relax and have fun in a safe, clean and pleasant atmosphere.

There are dozens of restaurants, most with outdoor patio dining, serving almost any type of ethnic or American cuisine you could wish for. There are night clubs offering a variety of entertainment, shops of all types, art galleries, antique stores, bakeries serving some of best pastries found anywhere, movie theaters showing first run movies, book stores with coffee bars and if you like people watching, people of almost every nationality, culture and income, letting loose and having fun.
