"On land originally belonging to the Presidio, the Palace of Fine Arts was built in 1915 for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. Today the site, which belongs to the City of San Francisco, features a classical Roman rotunda with curved colonnades in an idyllic park setting. Visitors may picnic, stroll by the lake, or visit the Exploratorium's hands-on science exhibits in the adjacent museum."

A must for every visitor to SF. These structures are beautiful, gives you a feeling of how Greece will be like. And there is a nice lake and meadow where you can sit, relax and watch the swans. And its right beside the bay.
