If you’ve never visited the Golden Gate Bridge, here is your chance to experience it virtually.
In 1937, President Franklin D. Roosevelt gave the go-ahead for vehicles to begin crossing what was,
at the time, the world’s longest suspension bridge. In the 75 years since, the bridge has come to
mean much more than transportation.
The Golden Gate Bridge is an impressive feat of modern engineering. In the following video, learn how
“the bridge that pessimists said could not be built” has become an iconic piece of history for the city of
San Francisco and across the world.
