The Golden Gate Bridge is an American landmark in San Francisco, and few buildings are as recognizable as the Golden Gate Bridge.

When a ship enters San Francisco, the first thing you see when you look up from the deck is the bridge's giant steel towers.

The bridge connects San Francisco to the northern counties of California, making it one of the most popular tourist destinations.

Here, visitors can roam or drive along its eastern sidewalk to enjoy this historic attraction.

Before the completion of the bridge, ferries were the only way to cross the Golden Gate Channel. The Golden Gate Channel is 1,600 meters wide and connects the Pacific Ocean to San Francisco Bay. To build a bridge across the strait would be no small feat, and many thought it would be impossible.

The bridge was designed by engineer Joseph Strauss, whose full-body bronze statue was placed along the bridge in honor of his contributions to the United States.

Construction of the Golden Gate Bridge began in 1933 and was completed in May 1937. It took four years and more than 100,000 tons of steel, costing $35.5 million. The entire bridge has a magnificent shape.

The steel towers stand on the north and south sides of the bridge, 342 meters high, including 227 meters above the water, equivalent to a 70-story building. The span of the bridge between the steel towers is 1,280 meters, one of the rare single-hole long-span suspension bridges built in the world.

The height from the sea to the center of the bridge is about 60 meters, wide and high so that even at high tide, large ships can pass unimpeded.

San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge in the United States is also an innovation in bridge architecture, it only has two pillars, and it is not used piers to support the bridge, but the use of bridge on both sides of the arc of the suspension belt to produce a huge pull, the heavy bridge body high up, suspended in mid-air.

The Golden Gate Bridge is the symbol of San Francisco, and it attracts countless visitors with its majestic grandeur.

In any case, the Golden Gate Bridge is now one of the busiest bridges in the world, attracting countless tourists, with about 100,000 cars driving over it every day, and witnessing the prosperity of the United States.
