A park in downtown San Francisco

Cecily G.

Salesforce Park is a public park you can visit in downtown San Francisco. It is behind Salesforce Tower, which is the tallest building in San Francisco. Salesforce Park is above street level and is accessible by elevator and escalator. It is located at Mission and Fremont Streets between Embarcadero and Montgomery BART (subway) stations. It is a quiet and peaceful oasis amid skyscrapers where you'll find a mix of business people and visitors walking around the park. It also has a beer garden where you can order food and drinks. It offers a stunning view of skyscrapers around the city. Whether you're an armchair traveler or planning to visit San Francisco, I hope you enjoyed this introduction to Salesforce Park. 

oasis = a refuge, such as a peaceful place in the middle of noisy surroundings
armchair traveler
= someone who 'visits' places without leaving their home, through reading, photos, etc.
