Golden Gate Bridge

  Golden Gate Bridge spans 1,280 meters across the Golden Gate Strait, connecting San Francisco to Marin County. Opened in 1937, it was the longest and tallest suspension bridge of its time, a feat of engineering that still impresses today. This iconic structure not only serves as a vital transportation link but also offers breathtaking views of the bay and the city skyline. In October, visitors can often enjoy a lively atmosphere as the bridge becomes a backdrop for local festivities, including the famous Bridge to Bridge Run.
