North Beach is one of the best spots to dine and explore in San Francisco. Ripe with European influence, the neighborhood is dotted with sidewalk cafes and Italian restaurants. If you’re looking for something more than just food, you’ll appreciate the neighborhood’s rich literary history: it is home to City Lights Booksellers and the Beat Museum. Take a virtual stroll down Columbus Avenue and the surrounding blocks with these 25 Instagram photos that capture the spirit of North Beach.

Good night from San Francisco's Coit Tower. Where's your favorite spot to explore at night in the City by the Bay? #repost from @wildbayarea (photo by @almrz.fj) #SanFrancisco #CoitTower #VisitCalifornia
