On the road from town to the park
complete with authentic graffiti
Here we are at the east end of the golden gate park
It is a rather huge park to begin with
lotsa walking to do
The park's rather sparse
The John F Kennedy drive serving the park
many statues along the common paths
the park's home to many establishments
such as the Conservatory of flowers
The front gardens
it's essentially a nursery and greenhouse
and houses a collection of rare and exotic plants
winter planters by the conservatory
tick tock!
The flower beds in winter
built in 1878...
it remains the oldest building in the park
carrying on west into the park
not many plants out in december winter
moving on to open plains
The Music concourse
It's an open garden
decked out with monuments
the concourse fountain
and surrounding art show
the de young in the background
digging the cool trees here
history of the concourse
which are mostly London plane and Scotch elm
