Picnic and a train...

The Golden Gate Express Exhibit @ The Conservatory of Flowers is the perfect setting for a picnic in Golden Gate Park.

All aboard The Golden Gate Express for a San Francisco holiday experience like no other! This winter, the Conservatory of Flowers premieres its first garden railway exhibition. It's a celebration of the city of San Francisco as model G-gauge trains wend their way through a lush landscape of dwarf plants and steam past mini versions of the city's landmark buildings. From Mission Dolores to the Golden Gate Bridge, Coit Tower to Chinatown's dragon gate, replicas of San Francisco's most famous places are set amongst miniature gardens and parks to create a magical setting for this special holiday attraction. Visitors will also enjoy a vintage train station seating area, appearances by costumed conductors and interpretive materials about the development of San Francisco and its railways. So, gather the family and get on track. The Golden Gate Express is a must see destination!
