The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge over the strait Golden Gate, the opening between San Francisco Bay and Pacific Ocean. Part of both U.S. Route 101 and California State Route 1, the bridge connects the San Francisco Peninsula with Marin County north of the San Francisco. The Golden Gate Bridge is one of the most recognisable symbols of San Francisco and the state of California. The American Society of Civil Engineers declared the bridge one of the seven modern wonders of the world.
The bridge was designed by American engineer Joseph B. Strauss. Built in about four years, the bridge cost about $35,000,000 and was opened in 1937.
