Now, we\u2019re not saying San Francisco resents her sister city Paris, but people brag about The City of Lights in a way that just invites an eye roll from any sibling. You might even say that Paris is the Beyonc\u00e9 to San Francisco\u2019s Solange. We do. Paris is elegant, fierce, and makes you feel drunk in love. San Francisco is youthful, sassy, and unpredictable. In a hypothetical elevator brawl, San Fran is swinging while Paris stands back and shoots a look that says \u201cKnock it off, boo boo. I look too good in my \u20ac10,000 dress to break a nail.\u201d In this installment of the Sister City series, we bring you what could be considered the coup de gr\u00e2ce: Paris and its sister city, San Francisco.<\/p>\n
Carbs and New Creations: Good Eats from Paris to San Francisco<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/a><\/span>![\"Body-](\"http:\/\/flights.waveinteractive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Body-close-up-of-two-french-style-crepes-shallow-dof.-Some-ingredients-in-the-background.jpg\")
<\/a><\/span><\/p>\nParis food delivers both the salty and the sweet, a la Beyonc\u00e9. The more carbs the better; this city believes every woman should have a few curves reminiscent of Yonc\u00e9. Nosh on chocolate croissants, strawberry crepes, macarons, and baguette sandwiches teeming with artisan cheese. Eat up, bebes. Wash it all down with an espresso at a breezy Parisian caf\u00e9 patio. Just like Beyonc\u00e9 and her fellow Destiny\u2019s Child-ren, this city caters to you.<\/p>\n
Solange has made it clear that she doesn\u2019t want her identity to be inextricably linked to her big sis. Much like her vibe screams \u201cindependent spirit,\u201d San Francisco\u2019s food culture doesn\u2019t try to compete with Parisian cuisine, it dances to its own gastronomy drummer. Once upon a time someone mixed spinach, eggs, and ground beef in a skillet and called it dinner. These days, the dish is called Joe\u2019s Special and it shows up on menus across the city. San Francisco is often at the forefront of food trends, including Asian fusion and other creative concoctions.<\/p>\n
Famous Sights on Center Stage From San Francisco to Paris<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/a><\/span>![\"Body-](\"http:\/\/flights.waveinteractive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Body-Eiffel-Tower-symbol-of-Paris.jpg\")
<\/a><\/span><\/p>\nBoth San Francisco and Paris make sister cities look good. Paris is replete with landmarks, from museums housed in former palaces to stunning cathedrals. Many Parisian places of note are historic, blending seamlessly into the otherwise chic landscape of the city. Just like Beyonc\u00e9 is able to marry diamonds with untamed hair in a single look, Paris presents centuries-old monuments and trendy boutiques in a single square mile. Shop your way down the famed Champs-Elysees, at the end of which you\u2019ll be met with the historic Arc de Triomphe. Visit The Louvre Museum, and upon exiting browse the underground collection of shops. Of course, you must also pay tribute to the famous tower, but we\u2019ll get to that.<\/p>\n
If Paris sights are chic and long-standing, San Francisco attractions are colorful and diverse. Solange is lively, and so are the most appealing landmarks and places in San Francisco. Take the bright red Golden Gate Bridge, for example. Some might say it\u2019s trying too hard, but one thing is for sure: You can\u2019t miss it. Fisherman\u2019s Wharf is home to Pier 39, where you can indulge in a happy hour, spend some cash at the shops, and stop for a minute in front of street performers. Yes, like Solange, San Francisco still does small shows as well as big affairs. Also worth a mention: The Chinatown in SF is the largest of its kind on the continent.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/span><\/p>\nIn a very Bey way, Paris hits you with more than you know what to do with. In this case, we\u2019re talking about transportation: subway, tramway, bus, cabs, and private cars. Boom, if you need it, Paris has it. It\u2019s like seeing Bey on stage with a wind machine, killer leather outfit, glitter makeup, and 10 fabulous backup dancers. It\u2019s almost\u2026too much, but all very necessary. Whereas Solange would get along great in San Francisco. She seems to enjoy changing her address a lot, and San Fran has a bevy of public transportation to get a girl like her from place to place. The Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) system connects San Francisco with East Bay cities, and you can also use it to get around within the city or to the San Francisco International Airport (SFO). The cable cars in Paris of the West have three routes. Hop on if you want to experience a breeze through your hair on your ride.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\nOne Thing You Can\u2019t Miss<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/a><\/span>![\"Body-](\"http:\/\/flights.waveinteractive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Body-Conservatory-of-Flowers-San-Francisco.jpg\")
<\/a><\/span><\/p>\nVisiting Grand Paris and ignoring the Eiffel Tower is practically sacrilegious. The tower sparkles like a pop star every night, its tapestry of tiny lights glowing like sequins. In the morning sun, La Tour Eiffel is just as dazzling. No, they don\u2019t polish it overnight. Much like Queen Bey, it woke up like this.<\/p>\n
In San Francisco, the view from Hawk Hill is unparalleled. The peak sits inside the Golden Gate National Recreation area, and bird lovers go cuckoo for the raptor migration sightings here. All visitors, however, can appreciate the panoramic scenes of the Golden Gate Bridge and the ocean. The weather here, like Solange\u2019s sassy temperament, doesn\u2019t always align with local climate. Bring a jacket when you visit this grassy Knowles.<\/p>\n
From the capital of France to the west coast of California, you will find no two destinations quite like Paris and San Francisco. Sister cities with equal charm and personality, this geographic partnership has a bond as strong as one forged by Tina and Mathew Knowles.
