Fort
Point was built to protect the gate from hostile entry during the Civil
War. Though it never saw much action - its cannons were never fired in
battle - Fort Point remains an important historical and military landmark.
The top of the fort offers a great view of the bay and an amazing vantage
point from which to see the architecture of the Golden
Gate Bridge. Located in the Presidio,
Fort Point is a great place to play hide-and-seek with the kids. Make an
afternoon of it by picnicking nearby at the beautifully restored Crissy
Field.
