San Francisco's Palace of Fine 艺术

The Palace of Fine 艺术 is located on Baker Street in the 玛丽娜，就在东部边缘的 要塞. 在…以西2.5英里处 渔人码头 西北三英里处 联合广场. You can reach the Palace of Fine 艺术 via Muni by riding bus lines 22, 28, 30, 41, 43 or 45. 它从早上6点开始营业.m. 到晚上9点.m. 每天.

The Palace dominates a small neighborhood park that features lawns to picnic on and a tranquil lagoon populated with fish, 鸟和海龟. The Palace is the only remaining structure from 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition, a historic World's Fair-style event that put San Francisco back on the map as a major global city after the devastation of the 1906 earthquake and fire.

Its Greek-style colonnades and soaring central rotunda make it one of the most singular and recognizable features of San Francisco's northern skyline. Up close, the scale of the structure is truly breathtaking. Don't be surprised if you find yourself having to carefully avoid appearing in the background of more than one happy couple's wedding photos when you visit.
