Legion of Honor
One of the more unique buildings in San Francisco is the Legion of Honor fine art museum. It is a three-quarter scale model of the Palais de la Légion d'Honneur in Paris, except with a striking view of the Golden Gate Bridge in the distance.
You have seen a picture of its interior in my previous post and here is the museum's spacious courtyard with a replica of Rodin's The Thinker.
Many wedding parties use it as a backdrop for their photo memories like this happy couple and their entourage on the day I visited.- Karen

ReplyDeletePoetic Shutterbug: Thanks, one of my favorite buildings in San Francisco.
ReplyDeleteBetchai: During the summer, one might be able to catch several weddings here.
Lina: I agree, a very gorgeous place. It reminds me of a palace.
Rainfield61: Wedding days are happy 365 days a year.
Life Ramblings: The outside is as beautiful as the art inside.
EastCoastLife: I think it depends how much you are into art. One can spend a day here, but my hubby will be done in less than 30 minutes. :)
