Some of the best ways to take in a city are free. In New York, walking the Brooklyn Bridge is a timeless activity. It goes without saying that in San Francisco, traversing the Golden Gate Bridge provides the same charm. Free Press writer Ellen Creager provides a nice account of walking this bridge known the world over (it even had a starring role in the Hitchcock classic, Vertigo). One snippet we love, “Walking the Golden Gate Bridge isn’t on everyone’s to-do tourist list. But when this city’s fabled fog parts for sunshine, it could be one of the most memorable experiences you will ever have.”
