San Diego, California, 1997 Photograph by Phil Schermeister Nighttime
is the right time to dine at the San Diego Pier Caf, where first-rate
seafood complements a breathtaking view of San Diego Bay and the
illuminated San Diego-Coronado Bridge.

San Diego, a sprawling city that spreads across 320 square miles (829
square kilometers) of hill, canyons, and shoreline, has a venerable
history. Europeans first set foot here around 1542, 78 years before the
Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock.
