About This Item

Ode to my Dad- my family just took my Dad to Washington DC. He is a historian and taught us many new things on this trip. I loved learning about the history of that area.
So, when you get this trackable, here is the mission. What can you teach me about the area that you live in? Is there something of historical importance? Please tell me about it and post a picture. Also, tell me where it is (what town, state, or country). I love learning and want to learn as much about the world as I can! :) Who knows, maybe it will inspire my next trip!

So I wanted to start with one of my favorite historical places. The Golden Gate Bridge. It is one of the most internationally recognized symbols from the US. It was built from 1933-1937 and connects San Francisco to Marin County. It cost more than $35 million to build. When completed in 1937, the Golden Gate Bridge had the longest suspension bridge main span in the world, at 4,200 feet (1,280.2m). Since 1964, its main span length has been surpassed by eight other bridges. However, it still has the second longest main span in the United States, after the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge in New York City. The total length of the Golden Gate Bridge, including approaches from abutment to abutment, is 8,981 feet (2,737 m). At 692 feet (211m) (above water), the Golden Gate Bridge also had the world's tallest suspension towers when built. It held that status until 1998, with the completion of bridges in Denmark and Japan. Okay..so what can you teach me?
