The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate , the opening of the San Francisco Bay into the Pacific Ocean. As part of both U.S. Route 101 and California State Route 1 , the structure links the city of San Francisco , on the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula , to Marin County . It is one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco , California , and the United States . It has been declared one of the modern Wonders of the World by the American Society of Civil Engineers . The Frommers travel guide considers the Golden Gate Bridge "possibly the most beautiful, certainly the most photographed, bridge in the world".
