Beautiful houses! If you want to take a picture, take it from the top of the park instead of across the street. You will get a better view. Also spend some time walking around to see more of Victorian houses

The Painted Ladies, the iconic row of Victorian and Edwardian houses lining Alamo Square Park, are one of the landmarks in San Francisco. These brightly colored "gingerbread" houses offer a stunning photo opportunity, especially when framed against the backdrop of the city skyline, provided it is not cloudy or foggy. While most tourists admire the famous "postcard view" from the park, one of the residences now offers a unique, intimate experience for history and architecture enthusiasts. Visitor

For me, it’s just a regular house—nothing special and not even that pretty. There are many nicer houses on the same street in San Francisco. You can come if you want, but it’s also fine to skip. Honestly, I kind of regret spending money on an Uber just to see it, haha.

I drove all the way from San Diego to see this and I was disappointed ☹️ I would not come unless your some die heart fan and want to see them . I had my own car and could not find parking and the houses were blocked by all these trees 🌳😳👀🥹 please make it make sense ! I took some pictures on the steps but no big deal! But to each their own choice and experience! But I didn’t think dragging my family out here was all the hype !
