San Francisco California. Why is this city so loved by so many?

It had been a lot of years, about 7, since I had last been in San Francisco. And other than a week or so holiday here about 10 years ago, all previous trips had been “in and out” work trips. Then in the space of 5 months came here twice, once for work and once…
