Everything You Need to Know About San Francisco's Golden Gate Park

Call it a gift from El Nino or just Mother Nature doing her annual thing, but springtime is returning to San Francisco in a big way.
One of the largest urban parks in the world, Golden Gate Park stretches for three miles on the western edge of San Francisco. There’s not a single “Keep Off the Grass” sign and its 1,017 acres are a tonic for mind and body. Two major museums, splendid gardens and facilities for more than 20 sports confirm that this is a playground in every sense of the word.
