GENERAL INFO

Location

The Gardens are located inside the gates of Fort Mason which is at the intersection of Bay and Franklin Streets in San Francisco's Marina District. As you enter Fort Mason, just after the first stop sign, you will make a soft left around the little chapel. Immediately on your left are the Gardens.
