BARBARY COAST TRAIL, SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA
At the start of the 1840s, the city now called San Francisco was neither a city, nor
called San Francisco (it was then Yerba Buena), nor in the United States. Yet just
a decade later, within two years of the California gold-rush frenzy sparked in 1848,
the population had boomed to more than 25,000. Follow the Barbary Coast Trail,
waymarked with dozens of bronze medallions and arrows embedded in the
pavement, to explore sites tracing the city’s history from the gold rush to the
earthquake of 1906, including the Old Mint of 1874, the Pony Express
Headquarters, the Wells Fargo Museum, the ships of the Maritime Historic Park,
and reminders of waves of immigration from China, including the USA’s first Asian
temple.
