Read & Explore 29: Golden Gate Park

Visitors to San Francisco can learn about a great park. Golden Gate Park is in the heart of the city.

A park map helps visitors get their bearings, or find their way to many fine sights. Ten lakes appear on the park map. On Stow Lake, visitors can rent rowboats or pedal boats.

Near the west end of this park, bison live in a field. In the early years of the park, bear, sheep, and goats roamed there, too.
