"The Bridge That Couldn't Be Built" Golden Gate Bridge Usa
it is only a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate, the opening of the San Francisco Bay into the Pacific Ocean. But the certain features and the excellence of its design have proclaimed it as a modern wonder of 21st century.
Marvelously, yet conveniently linking San Francisco with Marin County Golden Gate with the total length of the bridge spanning 1.2 miles, The Golden Gate Bridge held the title of the longest suspension bridge for a long long time. The bridge sways 27 feet to withstand winds of up to 100 miles per hour. It is indeed, a miracle especially considering the era of its making that is remembered in the history as the "Years of Great Depression". During these years, the might of human fought with the worst of weathers, persistent fog, 60-mile-per-hour winds, and strong ocean currents. At several times, when the strength of human gave way to pessimism the bridge was considered as absolute impossibility.
At the day of its impeccable completion in May 27, 1937 It came as a both pleasant yet shocking surprise to those who once title the Golden Gate Bridge as the "Bridge that couldn't be built."
Over 200,000 people celebrated the grand opening of the Golden Gate Bridge by walking its length. The following day, a dedication ceremony was held to officially inaugurate what would become the architectural icon of the country and still remains one. The regular flow of vehicular traffic began the next day. Although it took a little more than four years of constant hardships, unforgiving natural elements and encounters with impossibilities, to construct this wonder of architecture and design; but the result as we can see today, is significant. Even today, the massive spans of the bridge are often shrouded in fog. Tragically, eleven men lost their lives during the construction of this mighty bridge. The expenditure, $35 million but the hopes and efforts uncountable.
One important fact about the design of this living monument is the selection of the color. Today, we can not imagine the Golden Gate Bridge in any other color but orange. It must have been a tough choice. In 1933, the braniac architect selected the color Orange to blend well with the bridge's natural surroundings. The two great cables extending from the bridge contain 80,000 miles of steel wire, which is enough to circle the equator three times. The concrete poured to cement the bridge into the stormy waters below could have also been used to pave a five-foot sidewalk from New York to San Francisco, but the Impossible bridge, we have today is worth it.
Today, it is the existence of the Golden Gate Bridge that has evolved San Francisco as one of the premier skyline cities in the nation. Although it may still may be a supreme means of transportation, however to many it is the reason that attracts them to USA. Millions of tourists flock to get amazed by this suspended attraction. Also, tourism is largely supported in the USA and many airlines from round the world fly on daily basis offering cheap flights to USA. The ultimate gateway to the country is New York as there is a much larger number of airlines that fly back and forth from London to New York on daily basis. Also, from New York hourly flights depart to all top attractions of the USA. For more on cheap flights to New York USA visit Travelhouseuk.

Can i take her to Golden Gate Bridge on our third date?
Hi,
My date is new to SFO. We already had two dates and both of them really went well. I even kissed her on the second date. I am planning to take her to Golden Gate Bridge on our third date. What do you guys think? Is it open at 8.00 in the evening? Can we go to the top of hill and have the view at that time? Please advice. Thanks.
nope, that's like 4th or 5th date kinda thing, she's gonna think you're weird or crazy and your gonna get in a fight and you'll end up killing her and throwing her off the bridge
