Castro san francisco gay

Although the greater gay community was, and is, concentrated in the Castro, many gay people live in the surrounding residential areas bordered by Corona Heights, the Mission District, Noe Valley, Twin Peaks, and Haight-Ashbury neighborhoods. Some consider it to include Duboce Triangle and Dolores Heights, which both have a strong LGBTQ presence.

You can discover San Francisco’s and the Castro’s recent gay history. It even stretches as far back as the Spanish explorers from before the American republic was founded. Take a stroll down the Castro’s Rainbow Honor Walk. It’s like Holywood’s Walk Of Fame, only as a tribute to queer historical figures as opposed to actors.
