Palace of Fine Arts
The Palace of Fine Arts is a monumental structure in the Marina District of San Francisco, California. It was originally constructed for the 1915 Panama–Pacific International Exposition to exhibit works of art. Completely rebuilt from 1964 to 1974, it is the only structure from the exposition that survives on site. The most prominent building of the complex, a 162-foot-high (49-meter) open rotunda, is enclosed by a lagoon on one side, and adjoins a large, curved exhibition center on the other side, separated from the lagoon by colonnades.Photograph credit: Rhododendrites
