Travel planning tips

Plan Rainey Street as part of a wider neighborhood or city block instead of making it the only stop in that part of the day.

Districts usually feel stronger when you decide whether the point is food, shopping, nightlife, or a general walk before you arrive.

If Rainey Street matters most after dark, keep the rest of the day lighter so the evening does not feel rushed.
