You can even take a walk along the cliffs and will discover beautiful views of the Golden Gate Bridge. It can be windy so bring a jacket!

Caption: Finally, a visit to San Francisco wouldn’t be complete without a trip to the Golden Gate Bridge. You can drive, walk or bike over the bridge or just find a spot to check out the views. This photo was taken on the north side of the bridge at the Battery Spencer lookout.
