- Fernando Freitas AlvesSeptember 22, 2014It is like a "Rua Augusta" here. I recommend you to go to the "Land of the Sun" and talk to Paul. He is incredible and he can tell you stories about Hendrix and Joplin and a lot of the 60's scene hereUpvoted 1 week ago

- Chris SarandosAugust 21, 2011A very cool collection of shops, bars, and restaurants. However, be prepared to be bombarded by bums, people from green peace, and people trying to save planned parenthood. Really annoying...
- Baxter BaxterMay 14, 2013Its like Disneyland, but instead of getting a picture with Mickey and buy a pair of mouse-ears, you get to know faux-hippies and buy tie dyed tshirts. Oh, consummerism at its best.

- Jennifer MurdockMay 31, 2013Dirty hippies and street kids. Awesome consignment shops. Sort of smelly. If you get ice cream I recommend a bowl not a cone. That stuff melts fast.
- Reserve123.comSeptember 10, 2011Grab some ice cream on the corner at the Ben and Jerry's. Eat it while you walk up the hill to see the former Grateful Dead house.
- ChadJuly 24, 2017In 50 years it went from the Summer of Love to a lame tourist trap and shopping plaza.
- Adam DraperSeptember 2, 2011Check out the Jugtown Pirates. They've got a real Dead feel but add their own flavor. Great stuff!
- Tracy FerklerJune 24, 2013Cool man but don't be surprised to see how commercial it has become since 1969. Way Groovy though

- Cory O'BrienJanuary 20, 2012It's still frequented by the hippies that made this place famous, though capitalism has started to creep in. Just don't tell the locals.

- Here, you can't tell whether the poop you see on the street is animal or human.
- Jobu JemasApril 14, 2014You would think that these dirty hippies would be better at playing the guitar with all there free time. But alas they are awful. Tip here is don't do drugs and stay in school kids.
- Coming here makes me hate all of mankind. I want to punch the assholes trying to sell pot to everyone who passes.
