Visiting San Francisco - What to See

[ckaiserca]

My wife and I will be visiting San Francisco from July 14 to 18. Are there any Nihonto related “must sees” that I should be aware of?
 

Thanks,

Sadly Charles, not really

Our regular monthly meeting is on the 21st, we would invite you there but it seems your dates don't line up. The Asian Art Museum has two or three swords in the permanent displays upstairs but they are not much to look at. Beyond that all the old antique stores that might have had swords are all gone now. If you are travelling about town and find yourself at the Palace of The Legion of Honor, out front looking out onto the bay is a cenotaph dedicated to the Kanrin Maru, the first ship to sail from Japan to the U.S. Not all that exciting but we always bring our Japanese guests to see it when they are in town.

 

If you're looking for Japanese food I highly recommend Ryoko's - absolutely the best in the City...
