Scenic spots Introduction :
The Golden Gate Bridge is one of the world's most famous bridges and a miracle of modern bridge engineering. It is considered a symbol of San Francisco and is also considered the world's first choice for suicide. The north end of the Golden Gate Bridge connects Northern California and the south end connects the San Francisco Peninsula, spanning the Golden Gate Strait, which is more than 1,900 meters wide. The designer is engineer Joseph Strauss, and his statue is now placed on the bridge to commemorate his contribution to the United States. The bridge tower is 227 meters high, and each steel cable weighs 6,412 metric tons and is twisted from 27,000 steel wires. The shape is magnificent and simple. The bridge body is vermilion, lying on the blue sea and white waves. When the lights are turned on, it is like a giant dragon flying in the sky, making the night sky of San Francisco even more magnificent.Attractions distribution:
