Golden Gate Park is an amazing mix of natural and historical. It's a perfect green space in an otherwise incredibly dense city. The museums here are the cities best featuring science and art. You absolutely must arrive early or else risk not finding parking and being stuck in traffic for an eternity.

One of the great city parks. Vast in size and so many things to see and do—there’s a boating lake, art and science museums, windmills, cycle paths, a 9-hole golf course, botanical gardens and a conservatory, and now a Ferris wheel. Or you can do none of those things and just hang out on the many meadows

Incredible park with so much to offer! You can spends hours in the park and come out feeling like you've only scratched the surface, which is great because you definitely have to go here a dozen different times to truly comprehend the size and all the great things you can see and do here.Did I mention most of it is free!?
