Palace of Fine Arts- Bernard Maybeck 1913 
ThePalace of Fine Arts was designed by Bernard Maybeck. His inspiration was from Roman and Greek architecture. The sculptures and figures represent contemplation, wonderment, and meditation. A single dome remain from the original eight. Connected walkways tower between the buildings and link them together and the lagoon creates a mirror from which the magnificent buildings are reflected on the water's surface. Swans, ducks, geese, turtles, and frogs have made their home there inside the lagoon which is enclosed by Australian eucalyptus trees. 
The Palace of Fine Arts has been restored on the interior making the beautiful building a highly favored wedding location throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
