In your opinion, which city is the most breathetaking in natural and man-made beauty: San Diego or San Francisco?
I'd say San Francisco definitely has the bigger "wow" factor. San Diego has the big edge for weather, but San Francisco is a beautiful city in a beautiful setting on the Bay surrounded by mountains. Not that SD doesn't have beautiful parts too. Torrey Pines State Park is a standout place just a few miles north of downtown San Diego.
I've been to both, and I think San Diego is actually more beautiful. I might be in the minority here, but I don't find San Francisco particularly charming at all, with the exception of the Golden Gate Bridge. San Diego is more of my kind of place.
Location: Originally Fayetteville, Arkansas/ now Seattle, Washington!

I've never actually been to either, i've just seen pictures lol. Neither of their skylines impress me, as I am a big height fan. That said, San fran has the pyriamid building, and san diego has the building with the colored rings. I love palm trees and mountains so my vote has gotta go with San diego on the natural beauty.
tough one. the SF architecture is great and its very urban & has Napa/Sonoma. but then again, SD has got the SoCal thing perfected and its proximity to TJ and the Baja.
both have great natural beauty.
