Was here in spring of 2016! One of the better bridges . Yes , way better than the Brooklyn bridge. And the surrounding bay is huge and clean . I strongly recommend hiking both sides and continue your journey on foot and public transport !

For obvious reasons this is world's most photographed and beautiful bridge. I was fortunate enough to have it as a backdrop to look at all day when I was working the San Francisco Rock-n-Roll Half Marathon 2017. Amazing.

At an awesome experience! Renting a bike and exploring the city was the best decision I have ever made. All of the people I ran into were really friendly. Biking across the bridge is a little tight because of all the people walking, but it was amazing, give it a try!

I like the view! But this time, we are not lucky. It's foxy here. We can not see the bridge clearly. Poor us. But the weather was nice anyways. And the view was cool, even though we not get to see the bridge.

This old bridge is huge and beautiful. Seems like it's usually cloudy, windy and chilly. But to walk across it from one side to the other and back is simply breath taking. Many people bike on it, but i honestly prefer walking and stopping every so often to enjoy the beautiful views and taking a bunch of pictures and videos.

I've driven across the bridge once and motorcycled across it twice. It's an absolute must-to-do. No toll on the last ride. Pretty foggy but we parked and walked around taking pictures. If your're a motorcyclist and haven't ridden the Pacific Coast Highway, are you really a motorcyclist?

Absolutely stunning! Have always wanted to see it since watch Full House. An iconic place in San Francisco.
We went across it and then took the boat tour under the bridge. Manifique!
Best to go during non traffic hours or you will be stuck in traffic. You can also walk across it or rent a bike and ride across but it s quite windy so best to wear something warm if you decide to do so.

Golden Gate Bridge is a steel suspension bridge with Art Deco styling in California spanning Golden Gate, a 1.6-kilometre-wide straight connecting San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. Opened in 1937, the 1,970-metre, 6-lane bridge links San Francisco to Marin County as part of the National Highway System. Construction of the orange-coloured bridge started in 1933 and took just over four years to complete at a cost of $35 million and the lives of 11 men. McClintic-Marshall Construction Company, a subsidiary of Bethlehem Steel, carried out the project with Irving Marrow serving as architect and Joseph Strauss and Charles Ellis serving as design engineers. Golden Gate Bridge is 227 metres high and 90 metres wide. Its longest span is 1,280 metres. Clearance below the bridge is 67 metres at high tide. Clearance above the bridge is 4.3 metres. The weight of the roadway is supported by 250 pairs of vertical suspender ropes attached to two main cables. The main cables pass over the bridge s towers and are fixed in concrete at each end. Each of the main cables consists of 27,572 strands of wire. The total length of galvanized steel wire used to fabricate the main cables is estimated to be 130,000 kilometres. Each of the two towers has about 600,000 rivets. Golden Gate Bridge is both a California Historical Landmark (1987) and a San Francisco Designated Landmark (1999). Approximately 110,000 vehicles use the bridge each day. Southbound vehicles (two-axel) pay $8.00 ($7.00 with FasTrack) to cross the strait.

One of my favorite experiences as a first time visitors to San Francisco. Make note that you may want to pack a jacket or warmer clothes as the weather can change quickly as the fog rolls in. It is no wonder that this bridge has been declared a Wonder of the modern world, from it's huge rivets to it's signature red coloring. Love the welcome center and gift shop if you need a memento or gift for those at home.

A classic destination you need to stop at if ever on a visit to the Bay Area.

Well known to everybody and used frequently in movies, it's a pretty neat experience to be able to be there for yourself and see the view of the Bay and city around yourself.

Probably also a fantastic place for photographers of all skill levels, offering chances at photographing landscapes and any birds or sea life that are minding their business on and around the bridge.

Amazing, great big red bridge. Don t jump off, the water will be as hard as concrete. And there are a lot of people actually in a hurry to work and stuff, so try to play it cool. It can be really overwhelming

All the magic of San Francisco and the best view for the bay. Best is to go in the morning, walk through it, and after go to Sausalito using the walking path for a nice lunch in the many restaurants there, and return by boat!

It's an architectural wonder too, so a must see. Walk the bridge while taking in the views of San Francisco. Lots of ships and sailboats, views of Alcatraz. Beautiful views and interesting information at base of bridge about its history. Bring a jacket!!!

Golden Gate Bridge is symbol of San Francisco and this is absolutely must see when you are in this city. Here you can see amazing view on the San Francisco Bay, ocean and the city. There is a lot of places, in which you can take a beautiful foto of the Golden Gate Bridge.
