Golden Gate Park: A 1,017 acre national park located in the heart of San Francisco. Home to bison, tourists and locals alike, San Francisco’s largest national park is a sprawling forest of intrigue and wonder.

Tucked inside this expansive world attraction are history, creativity and whimsy in nearly equal proportions. The AIDS Memorial Grove stands to commemorate those no longer with us, while the Academy of Sciences Museum champions the national and scientific accomplishments of our time. Polo fields neighbor racing ponds, and Bison roam fenced paddocks nearby.

Its layout may not all make sense, but it doesn’t have to. Golden Gate Park is a national treasure awaiting adventure.
