San Francisco is the city known for the Golden Gate Bridge, an iconic suspension bridge that spans the Golden Gate Strait, the entrance to San Francisco Bay from the Pacific Ocean. Completed in 1937, the bridge connects San Francisco to Marin County and is renowned for its striking International Orange color, which enhances visibility in California's frequent fog. The Golden Gate Bridge has become a symbol of the city and an engineering marvel, attracting millions of visitors each year. Its picturesque setting against the backdrop of the bay and the surrounding hills makes it a favorite subject for photography and art.
