Tunnel Tops is a new public park, opened in 2022, that reminded me a lot of our Olympic Sculpture Park. Both are extraordinarily beautiful spaces with unbelievable views that replaced an eyesore. Also, free!

When the highway leading to the Golden Gate Bridge was damaged in an earthquake, San Francisco rebuilt the highway in a tunnel, then created this incredible park on top.

There is a nature-based playground, a hands-on field station with friendly staff, tons of space for picnics and hanging out. We explored one teeny tiny corner of the Presidio, then headed to Crissy Field to watch people wing foiling.
