Awesome old military bunkers to look around at and some of the best views to look at!

One of the world's most famous bridges. Good place to have a walk or a ride. Personally I would avoid to use a car to get there, it's usually crowded.

Mornings are the best time. Beautiful weather and a lovely walk with a view

What a wonderful bridge. Truly a landmark of Sanfrancisco. It is fascinating.

I mean does it really need another review? I would only find my way into a review section of the Golden Gate if I needed the actual address.

One of the best places to jog in SF bay area. Park your car on one side, jog to the other side and back :)

You might get good view of ships passing under the bridge as you jog.

We walked from one end to the other and back. It was something that we have always wanted to do. The bridge was magnificent. The views were incredible. The visitor center was a disappointment. They are very light on the history but very big on selling souvenirs. They could do both and should have a small theater with a documentary to educate visitors on the history and building of the bridge.

Numerous Vista points and hikes to get great views of the Bridge and bay. If you want to get the least amount of tourists, get there early mornings....very early.

Park has great places to view the bridge and many useful learning areas. Path to get on to the physical bridge was a little rough though.

Loved it. visited in the morning by 9 on a bright sunny day so Got good views, less traffic, n parking space. The drive on the bridge is majestic

I went here to take some pictures and it was truly a beautiful bridge. Great place with great views for tourists. Would recommend going to the park on the southern entry of the bridge for the best view.

Outdated, undersized, poorly maintained. Famed suicide spot. Needs replacement as many ships now can barely squeeze under it at low tide without lowering their antenna masts.

History, past, present, everything colides here. This is a bridge you want to visit during the day, evening or night and even during the early hours in the morning. The place has restrooms, a cafe, a great history information for anybody walking around the tourist area. This spot is free and open. Feel free to take friends, family and/or a date, everyone is welcome. San Francisco must stop.

It was great me and my family had a great time I loved.

over rated and a tourist trap. not that nice of views.

take a ferry boat ride around the bay it will be prettier

Such an iconic landmark in San Francisco! I have seen it a couple times before, but this time I got some great shots from underneath looking up. It was gorgeous. All that green-blue water underneath, wow, wow, wow. And you truly get to see just how tall that bridge is. It you can't go on it, then just at least see it. Stop and take it in!

Always seem to have a good time here,only down fall is being in San Francisco where you can never find a restroom or parking that doesnt need you to sign over your first born.lol Unless you are from out of state and really feel you have to visit San Francisco and the Golden gate bridge i suggest any other bay area city to visit,its cheaper(bridge and parking will get you).

Walked in August so missed the famous fog, not a bad walk and the bridge certainly looks good from a distance, but when on it one quickly sees its just a bridge, and nothing more. Traffic, both cars pedestrian and bikes meant it was quite busy and noisy when we went, might be nicer at another time of day, but the fact remains its just a bridge.

Every time that I visit SF I cross the Golden Gate walking. Either way you can rent a bike and ride across all the bridge, you can continue to Sausalito if you want to a complete bay area sightseeing.

Wonderful bridge. You can view those beautiful angles.

Always a special event crossing the Golden Gate Bridge. Never gets old.

It was fun but it was cold, windy and foggy .
Have to go again some other time.

Well, what can I say about this place that hasn't been said before? I've been there now for a couple of times and mostly I have been very lucky with the weather: it seems that the Golden Gate Bridge is completely covered in fog at times. That hasn't occurred to me yet. The view you get from those points nearby is always breath taking. Last time I went there with a friend from Napa valley and he said: 'Damn, I haven't been here in ages. It's simply such a touristy thing that we don't that anymore. I should definitely come here way more often'.

Everyone has to visit the iconic bridge at least once in your their life! You can walk or bike across the bridge for free!

Amazing place. All are welcomed. Various trails available, that allow you to appreciate the Golden Gate Bridge in different angles. Trails can be walked or biked. The trails connect to beaches like Baker Beach, which is beautiful. Definitely recommend, here any place, position or angle is great for a picture. Parking can be difficult to find, but definitely worth the experience. Bring comfortable shoes and a sweater, the bay can be chilly.

Awesome view of this bridge is available from all the surrounding places..be at Sea side or expressway or market around it..
Moving crowd here...love to click a lot of pictures.. anytime visit worthy

LLots of terrific. Very noisy. Looks good from a distance.

More than the bridge, the view of the city from the bridge on a full moon night was amazing

beautiful place to look to alcatraz, the pacific and the SF Skyline

It's a old bridge of San Francisco and it's beautiful bridge is the world

One of the best place to visit in San Francisco. The Golden Gate bridge

This is an engineering marvel, always amazes me. Good for all ages. Walk/bike-able through the bridge in both direction. Spectacular view all around.

One of the greatest experiences in my travels. Loved it!

San Francisco and the mid-sixties were a special place and a special time to be a part of. But no explanation, no mixture of words, music and memories could touch the awareness of being there, alive, in that corner of time and world, whatever that meant. There was madness in every direction, at any time, you could spark sparks everywhere, there was a fantastic, universal feeling that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning. And that, I think, was our foothold, that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of the old and evil, not in a violent or evil sense, we didn't need it, our energy would simply prevail, we had all the momentum, we rode the crest of a very high and wonderful wave.

Beautiful place and historical to boot... too much traffic. Be prepared to wait for hours, or try to find a lookout point to park and walk to the bridge.

I remember walking across this. My god what s that a beautiful view.

What an American Icon! A historical bridge with an incredible view. A trip to San Francisco is not complete without seeing this masterpiece.

Iconic, must see, must walk across on foot experience!

An amazing piece of history! It is so beautiful to see up close and completely worth the trip, even in the fog.

We cycled across it. Perhaps should have purchased bikes nearer the bridge. We did about 5 miles before we got there. It's hit or miss with the weather obviously so some days you cannot even see the top due to clouds. Cycle or walk across it as it is a very good experience. It's extremely busy and there are hundreds of people trying to get the perfect picture so make sure you have the confidence to take your place when you get it. BUT when you do get that picture it is well worth it

My experience walking across Golden Gate was AMAZING! The architecture and design of the bridge was magnificent, and my experience walking the whole bridge was breathtaking! It will very likely be windy and chilly, so be prepared for that, but aside from that the views and everything were spectacular! Seeing the bridge up close is already mind blowing, but actually walking the bridge is a different experience. We even saw a gigantic cargo ship and some whales while walking! Also, a quick note, use the bathroom before walking, because it would suck to want to use it in the middle of the bridge.

Definitely MUST go if you have not seen the bridge before, because seeing the bridge with the mist and fog is an experience you can NOT miss!

The Golden Gate Bridge is a technical masterpiece that can only be described in superlative terms. When the bridge was completed in 1937 it was the world's longest and tallest suspension bridge.
But above all this masterly example of engineering is a magnificent monument set against a beautiful backdrop.

Construction of the Golden Gate Bridge started in 1933. The bridge, which was designed by engineer Joseph Strauss was built to connect San Francisco with Marin County across the 1600 meter (+5000ft) wide strait known as the Golden Gate which links the San Francisco Bay with the Pacific Ocean.
The dimensions of the bridge defied all imagination. The total length of the bridge is 8,981ft or 2,737 m. The main span between the two enormous towers is 4,200 ft or 1,280 meters long, making the Golden Gate Bridge the world's largest suspension bridge,
a record that would stand until 1964 when the Verrazano-Narrows bridge in New York was completed.
The two beautiful Art Deco towers are almost 820ft or 250 meters tall, of which more than 20 meters is below the sea level. The road, six lanes and 90 ft / 27m wide is an amazing 220 ft or 67 meters above the water level. It is supported by enormous cables, anchored in hundreds of bars locked into concrete blocks with a pulling power of 25 million kg. The two cables have a total length of 2,332 meters and a diameter of 90 centimeters. They are woven from 27,572 threads of steel with a total length that equals three times the earth's circumference.

Amazing view, it is pretty chilly so i recommend to take a sweater

Great place to visit. There is a lot of information regarding the bridge and the history of it which are really interesting. You can walk/bike/drive across the bridge, depending on your preference. It's clean and safe and when you're at the mid bridge, you'll be able to look back to the city of SF as a whole which is really beautiful! Doesn't matter whether it's a sunny or cloudy day, you'll be able to see SF in a different way!

Classic SF attraction, fun to walk across and sightsee from. Definitely worth the visit!!

Defintiely worth the hype! Also, some wonderful crabbing can be done underneath the bridge! Crabs pulled from this spot were delicious, soft, and perfectly seasoned by tbe water!

What a fabulous construction indeed. I visited Golden Gate Bridge in 2010 June. My friends took me there. I was simply amazed to see the massive suspension bridge in San Francisco city.
Genius Engineer Joseph Strauss together with other engineers commenced the Bridge in 1933 January. This was the longest suspension bridge and they completed the task in 1937. Tourists marvel at this great architecture.
Length of one Cable - 7650 ft
Diameter of one cable - 92.4cm
Wires in each cable - 27,572
Total wires used - 80,000 miles
Weight of cable - 24,500 tons
I'm still amazed

Great place. Not too crowded during weekdays which was wonderful. Going into San Francisco has toll so be aware. Toll can be paid online so don't need toll pass device. Place to see once and that should be enough

Great bucket list item to check off! Must walk the bridge to get the full experience

The crown jewel of the San Francisco Bay Area. Explore it from all sides day and at night.

A lot to see. Good walking shoes is a must, along with some snacks. Obviously be prepared to take many pictures of the different great views of the bridge and parks. Be aware of common brake-ins to cars in plane view, daytime; so no valuables in sight in your vehicle is important.

I only wish the cafes were open later. Otherwise I love this place!

If you are in the area, you must see this awesome spectacle. The entire Golden Gate park and Presidio are worth spending a day, but pack a lunch.

Awesome walk across the bridge! Would love to do it again!

Iconic structure that you can walk, bike, or drive on. Beautiful surrounding areas on either end, plus more national parks on the south side. Worth a visit if in SF!

What a beautiful place to visit. If you can afford to live in a expensive state, then don't think twice about it. I loved it

First timer! Parked on South side, walked to Vista Point on the north side, and back. Beautiful sunny day, weather was chilly and bridge was windy, but what a view of Alcatraz and the city skyline! Many people out enjoying this iconic marvel, even on Super Bowl Sunday with the 49ers on the field! The walk itself is relatively flat and easy. The roar of traffic is loud. The parks on either side are attractively designed and clean with interesting exhibits. Definitely recommend this unique experience with its beautiful scenery!

A must see if you visit San Francisco. I highly recommend that you drive directly from the airport to the bridge. Many places to park on either side.

What an iconic bridge also a must see and travel over it

It was just as cool as I hoped it would be. We ended up at the Coast Guard area at the bottom of the bridge, couldn't have planned a better viewing area. There was a sea lion barking at the fishermen asking for a treat.

My mother and father were both born prior to the bridge being built. They both spoke of it as their favorite landmark growing up. Seems like home to me! Love this icon of SF!

Absolutely love this place! Always worth the stop! Go up the back roads!

Totally amazing! Walking over the bridge was a good experience.

An Amazing structure with a long history. You can walk on the side of the bridge and look down at the waters surrounding it! A must see if it is your first time in San Fransisco.

Very windy. Be prepared. There are a lot of people walking along the sidewalk of the bridge.

Great tourist attraction for all ages. It's better to go earlier than later because of the amount of tourists that flock there. Great bike trail near here that leads over the bridge.

Fantastic huge bridge linking SF to North California. Classic red suspension bridge that we've all grown up knowing and loving. I remember it from watching Full House(the tv show) so much. It takes a LONG time to walk across it. So the best way to experience it is walk to the middle and walk back. Amazing experience!

Amazing structure!!

We considered cycling over as a family, but in the end glad that we didn't as it is very windy and traffic moves very quickly even though the cycle lane is separated from the cars. Instead we walked half way across and returned via the same route. The views of the San Francisco bay from the bridge are amazing too.

The Golden Gate Bridge Vista Point is a fantastic place to take in the beauty and immensity of this storied and iconic bridge.

We visited it during our Summer road trip from Tigard, Oregon through Northern California.

You never know what the weather will hold and in fact it was very foggy over the bridge most of our time in the Bay Area.

But we were still able to appreciate it and our kids can say that they drove over it!

Went as a tourist so it was an interesting bucket list item to walk across the bridge. The views were great and we enjoyed it. Consider earplugs as the traffic noise got unpleasant rather quickly.

very pleasant place
we enjoyed trekking and the nice view of downtown

#naparoots Walk the west side of the bridge to see the ocean and Farlon island, east side views the city, Bay area and Alcatraz. It's a much longer walk than most experience. Great evening views of SF from the Marin / North side of the bridge ( usually not a lot of people at night ).

Pretty views. It is a major landmark, so naturally it is one of the things you want to see while you are in town. It gets windy here on the bridge, so a jacket/windbreaker is highly recommended.

There is no doubt that this construction it is the Top 5 best postcards earthscape views in the whole world!!! I lived one of the best moments of my life here.
