San Francisco is the second-most densely populated large city in the United States. In 1776, colonists from Spain established a fort at the Golden Gate and a mission named for Francis of Assisi on the site. The California Gold Rush of 1849 propelled the city into a period of rapid growth. San Francisco is one of the top Avalon tour destinations in the world and famous for the landmarks, including the Golden Gate Bridge, cable cars, Alcatraz and Chinatown.
