The Castro, San Francisco's LGBTQ+ district, was the epicenter of the 1970s gay rights movement in the United States. In this self-guided exploration game you discover its history from pre-colonial times to the HIV/AIDS crisis of the 1980s and beyond, from Pink Triangle Park and Harvey Milk Plaza past the Castro Theatre, Castro Camera and Mission Dolores Park to the Twin Peaks Tavern, and meet the iconic residents who gave LGBTQ+ Americans a voice.
Along the way you solve challenges in the Questo app, learn historical facts and local myths, and discover hidden spots that only locals know and most tourists pass by. The walk covers about 4 km and takes around 1.5 hours, with no time limit.
