Went to walk the bridge for my birthday, AMAZING EXPERIENCE and the view was breathtaking!!!

Beautiful, well-maintained bridge at the heart of San Francisco with a rich history.

Because of the variety in sights and the location. I especially liked the climate and the area north of the bridge in Marin County because of the wooded area and the view of Frisco and the many secluded and private sectors. There is also a gift shop and viewing area south of the bridge. This place is an absolute must C.

Of course its great, just don't forget your sweater its so breezy

I'm from New York, New York, California has more than one extravagant Bridge!

Got to do the touristy thing and walked across GG BRIDGE, bring a wind breaker jacket woll5 need it from Marin county back to SF.

Pedestrian need to share the walkway with bicyclists -who Rudely don't always stay to the left )-as that was bike lane! -and why don't groups of people walk single file when passing, each other - so you don't fall into the bike lane!

Other than a few rude, inconsiderate peeps ,the actual walk was pleasant & refreshing, no FOG for me ,watched windsurfers, red and white fleet tourist boats and 1 freighter go by the bridge ! About 45 minutes if quick pace and no stopping for but what fun would that be.

Great experience ! Walked half way down with my family, traffic and parking of course sucked. Visitation center was clean but pricey. Overall was as expected and had a good experience.

Someone should really do something about the weather up there...

Parking not friendly at all!
Nice souvenir shop, reasonable prices, recommend adding shot glasses to selection ;-)

Breathtaking views of San Francisco and the surrounding Bay area.

Worth the trip, any time of the day or night, the Golden Gate Bridge will be breath taking.

Golden Gate Bridge is one of the iconic landmarks of San Francisco that is a must see and a marvel of civil engineering by itself too.

For a Great experience, Start from across the bridge at the Lookout point by taking an Uber or a drive to the lookout point parking lot. Take great photos of the city of San Francisco. Then walk across the bridge itself. The walk across is amazingly scenic and takes only ten to fifteen minutes.

The fortress below the Golden Gate Bridge is a Civil War era fortress that is also open to the public but it is run by the National Parks.

Once across at the main visitor centre, there is a small park where you can view the history of the bridge and buy souvenirs or catch a bus (28) down to the Fisherman s wharf!

This is one of the most beautiful places in the world. The red color from the bridge with the blue pacific ocean just create a stunning visual that is mesmerizing.

Only went because it seemed to be the only real place to see in San Fran, it isn t special. But still, it s definitely the best place in San Francisco.

Pretty cool if you can time it right to avoid Karl the fog.

Spectacular views of the bay. The most iconic and recognizable structure in San Francisco. Beautiful place to walk around, take pictures and grab some souvenirs as mementos of your visit. There is no fee required to enter.

Beautiful piece of history with a great view alongside of it. Definitely recommend stopping by the park/viewpoint if you have the time or happen to be driving by it on your way in or out of the Bay Area!

If you can take the time to visit it at night you won t be disappointed with the view of the city at night! Absolutely stunning!

Definitely a sight to behold. Come to San Francisco for the food, the attractions, but definitely stay and take in the sight of the Golden Gate Bidge - a piece of world history and art. To make simple structures as artful as the Golden Gate is truly unique.

A classic place, best views are from the northwest side.

Great side scene , it was a great day for a walk in the bridge . Amazing history

Good view.
Great wind. Hold you hat.

Such an iconic bridge. Oh, and it's not red. It's orange! There are some really cool spots on the other side of the bridge, too.

Beautiful and clean environment. Though first time I went I was a bit disappointed it wasn't gold but thats a personal problem. ;)

What can you say about the Golden Gate Bridge? An iconic structural master piece that will live on forever. Great public Access to walk across, take pictures from both sides - rain or shine. Lots of historical information on both sides of the bridge. I've lived in the Bay Area for Many years and am still in awe of this beautiful man-made bridge. A MUST SEE on your list.

Gorgeous! Important! Red! Gusty winds make driving across an adventure! A rite of passage for anyone visiting the San Francisco area!

Must do in San Fran obviously. Explore Crissy Beach below. Fort Point only open Friday to Sunday so make sure you only make the long hike there on those days.

Wonderful bridge, very impressive, as well as the surrounding recreation area

A San Francisco trip isn't complete without a visit to and across the Golden Gate bridge. It can be cross by car (toll heading south), walking (east side) and bike (west side). Try not to ride bikes on the east side.

Life moves pretty fast. If you don t stop and look around once in a while, You could miss it.
Golden Gate is a Beauty. Its a great place to hangout with your loved one. The Bridge is pretty chilly so carrying a jacket will help. If you get a chance to go in the Evening, you can see the Sun setting on one side of the Bridge and the Moon rising over the City on the other side.

They robbed us on the parking close to the Battery Spencer view point but the Golden Gate Bridge is awesome by itself.

I was really looking forward for a great walk over the bridge, but for some reason it was not that great an experience. The construction deserves a standing applause and the photo that you get with the bridge in background is priceless.

Obvi this is a must when visiting San Francisco. I recommend renting a scooter or bike to get close. The view is fantastic.

July/August - Be prepared for the fog. Apparently the best time to visit San Fran is between Sep and Dec. The bridge is about a 15 minute walk and we'll worth doing. You can get hop on / off buses up to the bridge.

This place is great. I enjoyed the walk and the view of the bay from the bridge. I found it best to walk the bridge around sunset. You can see the bridge during the day and during the night. Walking the bridge closes at 630pm. They have bathrooms at each end of the bridge. Overall a good place for sightseeing trip. Lastly, pack
sacks and water.

Oh wow! It is beyond impressive, just breathtaking!
I'll let the photos tell you the story, but it will be an understatement.

Beautiful. I thought it was taller and was scared but it was great. I drove it first now I'm going to walk it.

One of the most popular place in San Francisco, it is really nice you must visit it.

A true modern marvel. The bridge is really something to lay your eyes on. No, it isn't that fancy or detailed up close, but walking out over the water really starts to give you a sense of the sheer scale of the bridge. If you're driving out to the bridge, know that there is additional parking on the hill at the South end of the bridge. And if you plan to walk out even part way across the bridge ( which I highly recommend) bring a coat because the breeze will pick up out over the water and it is always chilly.

Really fun to explore with a date. If she's worth it

Worth the trip. A better trip to the bridge is to cycle across it.

Amazing view finally we were able to see it in 2nd visit as last year when we visited it was completely covered in Fog.

Park your car for free at "Langdon Court" and then walk down for 3-5 minutes to the Golden Gate bridge.

If you want you can Rent a Bike and also go on the bridge as Pedestrian walking is not allowed on the bridge.

The heart of SF. I was surprise how beautiful this bridge in real than all the pictures of the bridge. You should see this with your eyes and try to go different spots for different angles/ view. You won't regret.

Beautiful place for photography.. must visit as a tourist..

What an iconic site. I was a tourist visiting the golden gate bridge for the first time and it was amazing to see in real lofe what we had seen in movies. There is a beautiful viewpoint where ypu can take pictures of the bridge too. It is much bigger than imagines. A must see attraction in San Francisco.

That's a cool bridge and that's very huge. You will have an amazing experience here.

Loved it. Always wanted to go see the Golden Gate Bridge I could not believe how beautiful it was sad that it got really foggy and we couldn't see the bridge by couple hours later

Beautiful landmark that deserves to be seen in person.

Beautiful. Just plain beautiful. This place has a lot of angle to take a picture of the bridge. The best I think it's on the bottom right near the center. There is a panorama view of the entire bridge and the sea below. There's also a walking stair goin down the sea. Be mindful of the fisherman there. Some of them hate tourist. No joke. I have a video of this guy's yelling us to leave the port . Also there's a way to use bike or walk the entire bridge. Enjoy the view this place is pretty.

We love Golden Gate Bridge and we have good memory for this. We had been here when my wife was pregnant of our first son and we visited here as four members of family.

Has to be done when visiting San Francisco. A lot of great view points if you have the time to go to.

It was impressive... wish the weather was better and I wasn't so tired from walking there from the other side of the city.

Truly breath taking view, definitely worth the walk.

I love this place. It has a magic in it that amazes me everytime.

It held my weight as we drove over. 5 stars!! A great American Icon. Very cool to see for the first time if you are new to the area. Don't forget to go to some of the local lookouts to see it from a variety of angles. There are a lot famous viewpoints that you might recognize once you get to them. Enjoy your time here!

Super windy take some wind proof clothes to cross the bridge.

It has a beautiful view. It's so cold but you will enjoy the trip.

When I was a elementary school student, we went to a field trip to the Golden Gate Bridge. But it was a little bit cold. I did not like that. However, I enjoyed the sea under the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Golden Gate Bridge looked awesome than I thought. But thinking back, the temperature was right to me. Not that hot,not that cold...... I think this is the one of the good facts of San Francisco nor California. I cannot forget the good and awesome memories there, if I became independent, I am planning to go back to the Golden Gate Bridge. And I met many friends from other classes in 1st grades. I can pack a another good memory in this place.

Enjoyable walk along it, although you're dodging pedestrians and cyclists the whole way. Great views from the far side, and you can get a tour bus out to Sausalito from there too, and get some other, less seen, views of the bridge.

Well worth the visit.Lots of pedestrians walking the length of the bridge.a good walk both ways .The best part we stopped and watched a humpbacked whale below the bridge .What an amazing sight.

Very beautiful, but to me it's just a bridge. I'm probably going to get roasted over that comment. On the other hand Sausalito is absolutely beautiful. Recommend staying there.

Amazing to walk or bike! Use the BIKE ONLY PATH so you can avoid all the pedestrians !!!

I expected the bridge to be gold but it was red. 2/5 would not recommend.

We took the train across the bridge in the dead of winter. The icicles hanging from the suspension bars were incredible! They would split a homeless person in two if they fell. The train was great. It had a dinner car and bar car, so I ordered a Gibson just like Cary Grant would, but they were out of mint. It takes the train several minutes to cross the bridge because of all the donkeys. Donkeys have traditionally lived on the bridge since the first span was built in 54AD. Local legend has it that if the donkeys leave the bridge, it will collapse exactly one year later! Wow! In the very middle of the bridge there is a memorial to the men who built the current green version. 945 men were killed when the balsa wood version in the original plans caught fire. They decided then not to let Bantu tribesmen design the bridge and a reputable architectural firm was hired and they recommended steel instead. The bridge has the capacity to send 1,200,434 cars, 13 trains and 2 Zeppelins each day, making it the 5th most efficient bridge in San Francisco. All in all the Golden Gate Bridge is a large steel bridge across an expanse of water.

This place is truly captivating. There are so many spots to take pictures. Seeing the Golden Gate is a once in a life oppertunity, and I am glad that I got to see it!! I really hope that you will come see.

Walked across and back the bridge. Majestic and wonder. It was cold on summer morning but a wonderful experience. Crowded with walkers, runners, and bikers.

So much better than I thought. I woke up for sunrise and it was absolutely beautiful. Stunning.

One of the most beautiful Bridges I ve ever visited. This one s my most favorite place here in BayArea. If you wanna have a complete view of the bridge, you can have it from VistaPoint, Battery Spencer and the view point next to toll gate. Golden Gate is the most photographed bridge in the world. You can walk or have a bike ride across the bridge which will be your most amazing experience you can cherish for a long time. There s enough parking space near GoldenGate North vista point from where you can click some amazing views. It s always foggy and windy on the bridge and you are lucky if it s sunny so that you can see the entire bridge and the top. Make sure you walk on a particular side, so that there s enough space for the bikers. Decent number of bus services ( GoldenGate Transit service) are available from civic center and from Sausalito and make sure you have enough change ( $5 ) cause they don t accept cards nor they give change for you $10 $20 bills. Below are some of captures from this amazing place........

This place was so fun first I went to the beach then I went on a boat under the Golden gate bridge

Great place for cycling and for taking a walk.. gift shop are little expensive

This place is never boring. Always good vibes. Must visit.

Such an iconic view specially in sunrise ...bit chilly as well in the morning

This is a place that you need to go to if you are traveling to the U.S

One of the best bridges in the world, passing by is just like a dream.

Love love absolutely stunning view highly recommend it swing by admire it . . .get lost in the beautiful views
