This bridge serves to unite the freeway San Francisco Peninsula with the coastal town of Sausalito and the area called Marin Headlands. Designed by architect Joseph Strauss, crosses the Strait of 120 meters long that connects the Pacific Ocean with the San Francisco Bay. When it opened the Golden Gate, became the longest bridge ever built, and today is considered the fifth favorite architectural element in the United States, and the first in the West Coast .
