City guide for tourism boards

Seventeen San Francisco places on one map: landmarks, viewpoints, and where to eat. Each pin is a real, credited photograph, and each place carries a one-line local tip, like walking the bridge early or booking the island tour weeks ahead. The map opens on the north side of the city where most visitors spend their time. A hotel or visitor bureau can embed it on its site and edit it in one place.

A sample map: its businesses and people are invented.
