The Chinese New Year Treasure Hunt is a unique, urban sleuthing adventure that plays out on the streets of Chinatown, North Beach and Telegraph Hill on the night of the annual Chinese New Year Parade. Treasure-hunting teams have four hours to solve sixteen clues leading them to obscure landmarks, forgotten architectural delights and vestiges of San Francisco’s colorful past.
Players can come up with a team already organized, or they can join like-minded hunters at the event. Hunters must pool their knowledge, skills and insights to solve a variety of challenging puzzles. What fun! Teams will discover things they never knew existed, and learn about San Francisco’s rich history and culture. Many clues lead to colorful locales, such as the sleepy village square where the golf rush got its start and the alley where Sam Spade’s partner was gunned down in “The Maltese Falcon.” You’ll end the hunt with a greater appreciation of the many layers of the city’s environment and heritage. And along the way, you and your family will have a terrific time!
