Magnificent Views to Golden Gate and the Bay

Golden Gate Bridge spans over Golden Gate, a channel that separates San Francisco from Marin County up north.

Walking is the best way to admire the magnificent engineering of the bridge and the views to the bay and downtown. The bridge is quite long, several kilometers, so be prepared with good shoes and enough time. One excellent way of walking is to take a cab from San Francisco and drop off at the northern end of the bridge, there is a small parking area, and then walk back to the city.

There is usually heavy traffic on the bridge as highway 101 runs through it, so you do not see that much from the car.
