About this spot
The Palace of Fine Arts, a treasured landmark nestled in the Marina District of San Francisco, is a stunning architectural gem designed by Bernard Maybeck for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition. A testament to the Beaux-Arts architectural style, the Palace features an elegant Roman rotunda with curved colonnades and a grand dome, all set amid lush gardens and a serene lagoon. Originally built to showcase works of art during the exposition, the Palace of Fine Arts has since evolved into a beloved destination for locals and visitors alike, serving as a picturesque backdrop for weddings, photoshoots, and leisurely strolls.
