Good place to hang out within Golden Gate Park if you really want to sit on a bench and enjoy the soothing gurgle of the fountains. It is bookended by the California Academy of Sciences and the de Young, and is a good rest stop for grandparents or little kids before or after checking out one of those museums. Bonus points if you can find the fairy door carved into one of the trees there (hint: the tree is closer to the de Young). Free concerts here in summer! #freeconcerts #sanfrancisco #cityparks #goldengatepark #outdoorconcert
