Other neighborhoods around Avalon

San Francisco is famous for many things, the golden gate bridge, great food, diversity, however it's most famous for unique architecture , especially Victorian style and bold colors. Sometime's I just enjoy taking a walk through neighborhoods with my camera and phone and often I get surprises such as this vibrant turquoise house. From the tile steps to the bold floral landscape this one definitely stood out. #architecture #sanfrancisco #colorfularchitecture #trovember #turquoisehouse #vibranthouse #streetphotography #streets_of_our_world #streetsofsanfrancisco #citywalks #worldsgreatcities
