Christmas Tree Point sits at the northeast end of Twin Peaks. It has a stunning view of San Francisco's skyline and is the second highest point in the city, standing at over 900 feet above sea level. Visitors get an unobstructed 360° panorama view of downtown San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, and Angel Island. It was named during a 1927 promotional campaign by the San Francisco Examine; this point continues to be a beloved destination for both locals and tourists.
