Geocache Description:

*****Warning: Don't ruin the hunt. I would recommend not looking at the uploaded photos until after you have found the cache, as they contain spoilers to the location of the cache.*****

You are looking for a small plastic magnetic container. Beware VERY high muggle traffic and it is very easy to get pinched if you aren't careful. The tourist to cacher ratio is huge. Please be careful and place it back right where you found it. Due to container size, please bring your own pen(cil).

While walking through San Francisco today, I came across this particular place. I've been thinking about this gateway for a long time. Much to my surprise, no one had placed a cache anywhere near here. I think the time is more than right for a cache.

This is the gateway to Chinatown. The largest Chinatown in the US. Home to amazing food, great sites, bargains, and if you know where to look you can get fortune cookies made right before your eyes. Nice and fresh. There are many historical sights to catch as well. Make sure to check your geocache apps. There are plenty of caches in this small town within a town. If you do locate this cache, please the only thing I ask it to take a picture somewhere in front of the gateway. I would love to see your smiling faces in what I feel is the best place in San Francisco.

****As always, my caches are never premium. I want ALL cachers to enjoy my hides with their friends and family. As I hope you do.****

The coords are off due to SF being terrible for GPS accuracy. So To find this cache, you will need to Examine this area closely. While you read the recent logs of people saying they have found it, don't get too Green with Envy. You too will find it. If you are standing in the correct spot, you will have a restaurant with great food to enjoy. The gateway will also be slightly to your left but not on your side of the street.

Note: The hint will give it away dead so make sure not to read it unless you absolutely need to.
