Golden Gate Bridge

Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco

Stretching 1.7 miles high above the mist-enshrouded waters of  this peaked, vermilion-painted suspension bridge (the color is officially known as International Orange) is as striking today as it was when it was completed in 1937. The natural surroundings—including the coves and forested bluffs of Marin County; the island of  and numerous sailboats, barges, kite-surfers, and even frolicking seals—can all be seen from the bridge on a clear day
