Nice bridge, always had a fascination with the Golden Gate and walking it was almost a surreal experience. Walked from the side of Fort Point all the way to the Vista Point sign on the other side, with nothing to do there we turned around and walked back to Fort Point. Come to find two months later that if we'd kept walking a little bit further we would have come across Golden Gate Vista View Point, which on a clear day offers a spectacular view of the bridge... oh well. Enjoyable walk. Also you can get sunburnt through fog I learned, so do wear sunscreen for this walk.

Beautiful bridge, with fantastic views. As touristy as it is, it's a must-visit in San Francisco. Don't let fog scare you away from the bridge; you can get some dramatic photos on foggy afternoons!

Beautiful, stunning, and amazing especially on a beautiful day. If you re in San Francisco you MUST visit the Golden Gate Bridge. If you have the energy and mobility you should consider walking across. I didn t see Uncle Jessie but it was great.

We visited this place fee times, this iteration we took a boat tour that went straight under the bridge. We have driven over it, walked over it, but taking a boat tour under it was an experience in itself. Family had a great time, $15 per person, including kids and no concession, but worth an experience. Loved it and recommended!

Beautiful view of the bay and the bridge. Parking is cheap but a small parking lot. Good luck getting spots.

The bridge itself is a beautiful bridge and well maintained.

The view of the bay is beautiful and you can see Alcatraz Island.

There are trails to walk along that makes this a great place to go. I enjoyed walking around and just seeing this area. You forget you are in a busy city with tons of traffic when you visit here. Very quiet and just a beautiful area to sit and relax or bike or run or walk.

Tourist area are but yet, great for locals to visit or take a nice bike ride.

A must-have for anyone visiting San Francisco. We walked there and it's a lovely (if slightly long) walk from the Pier 39 area. As long as you manage to avoid the mist - otherwise you won't see it!

Beautiful place with stunning view of the ocean. Do keep your camera handy as you will be motivated to take a lot of pictures. Good hike nearby. F you visit this place in early morning, you will have a picturesque view of fog-covered bridge. Highly recommended place!

We went on a Sunday evening in mid-August.... It was all foggy and we could barely see the bridge.... Everything was closed around the place... Get a nice jacket when you are visiting... It gets quite cold outside

This place is a must see place in SFO. Stunning views of the bridge surrounded by the nature, the mountains and the water below brings a joy and calm to the mind and the eyes. Good place to walk and spend time with friends and family.

A historical bridge which someone interest in physics should know about it. This bridge can cope with an earthquake very well. Salute to the engineers.

You have to come earlier than 9 am if you don't want to drive around just to look for parking space. We did try it twice but no luck.

Very beautiful historic bridge, great view upon San Francisco and areas around it. Its quite long for walking so be prepared, it attracts many tourist and can be crowded. Also it is quite windy up there so be prepared as well.

Get dropped of at Crissy Field, great views from this location, plus you'll be near restrooms and a warning hut (coffee shop), which all are part of the old military base. Another bonus from this location are the views of Alcatraz.

We decided the best way to see the Golden Gate Bridge was to experience the mystique surrounding it by driving across it first, then to explore the other aspects. But, nature didn't cooperate and fog would allow only us partial glimpses of it here and there during our stay. So like the saying, 'when like serves you lemons make lemonade', so we did the best we could and enjoyed. Attached are some interesting photos of the bridge playing peek-a-boo dressed in wisps of silky fog. Enjoy

On 2nd of November 2019, we have visited the Golden Gate Suspension Bridge in Orange Colour Constructed at Vista Point in San Francisco, CA, USA amidst severe objections and obstacles. The hanging bridge was constructed at a project cost of $ 35 Million and opened in the year 1937. The credit goes to its 1st Chief Engineer Mr. Joseph Strauss who contributed his might for the dedication of the bridge.
The steel bridge has been constructed over the ocean to connect the SFO city without pillars except at the 2 sides of the banks. The Bridge is connected through heavy insulated wires at both the side pillars on the banks. The main span of the bridge is 4200 feet. The length of each of the 2 main hanging cables is 7650 feet. The diameter of each of the cables is 36 inches. The number of parallel steel wires used in each of the cables is 27572. The total weight of the cables is 24500 Tons.
The Golden Gate Bridge has been built to withstand heavy velocity of wind and earthquake of high magnitude. The drive over 1.2 Km long magnificent suspension bridge is very interesting and thrilling. We can enjoy the beauty of the ocean and the marvelous sights of the SFO city through the side walk passage on the bridge.

Before the bridge was built, the only practical short route between San Francisco and what is now Marin County was by boat across a section of San Francisco Bay. A ferry service began as early as 1820, with a regularly scheduled service beginning in the 1840s for the purpose of transporting water to San Francisco.

Suggested to visit during evening or early morning as during day time, the bridge appears black, not golden. Night view is also worth a visit. Take a Muni bus no. 28 to make your visit cheap. BigBus etc tours aren't much of a worth. Beautiful backdrop of mountains and sea.

This admirable and defined bridge of the ages is sure to awe with its immense and raw expression of the American dream of hard work and dedication. A ray of golden hope in a lost and hopeless chaos. A bridge connecting all of humanity across the mighty bounds of the good and bad. A sheer expression of what it means to be human.

Been on this bridge plenty of times, the view and fresh air never cease to amaze. Best to rent bikes or walk the bridge. When in a car we like to park on the Northside and walk across. This is a must do if you visit San Francisco. Hopefully you will have a clear day.

Great place to walk, ride a bike or jog. Great views, especially when there is an air show going on over the bay. There are also hiking trails west of the bridge that are also very scenic and fun to walk on. They also have a gift shop on the south side of the bridge and an observatory look out on the north side of the bridge.

Always too cold, but the icon appeals to engineers, architects, city residents and tourists alike. All in all, an example in good quality urban life that is inclusive to all modes of transport and still generates revenue for the City. Drag your family to it, weather local or visiting, a good spot to spend a sunny morning in the City.

Take a walk across and enjoy the stunning views. Carry on to vista point where you'll find more views and some restrooms. You can also catch a sightseeing bus to return and if your lucky they won't ask you for tickets and get a free ride
