natural harbor in the world, which covers area of around 450 square miles. San

Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz,
Solano, and Sonoma.
North Bay is a sub-region north of the Golden Gate Bridge and it is divided
by water from the Bay Area. It has many wealthy societies and is probably the
slightest developed among the 6 sub-regions. This Bay has many parks which are
under development, beautiful farmlands and plantations. The most popular place
in this sub-region is Napa Valley, well known for its world class red wines
extracted from the winery.
San Francisco was once the largest city due to the high population percentage
in the whole Bay Area. Even though it does not owe the same title now, it still
remains the traditional, cultural, financial, and urban center of the area.
The most eminent landmark in this area is the Golden Gate Bridge, which distances
the Golden Gate Strait, a water passage linking San Francisco Bay and the Pacific
Ocean. The viaduct connects the city/county of San Francisco with Marin County

along San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean.
South Bay is the sub-region where one can find the mixture of past, present
and the future too. The past is classically distinguished by the city of San
Jose, the oldest city in California, while the present and the future could
