The Palace of Fine Arts in the Marina District of San Francisco, California, is a monumental structure originally constructed for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition in order to exhibit works of art presented there. One of only a few surviving structures from the Exposition, it is still situated on its original site.

In addition to hosting art exhibitions, it remains a popular attraction for tourists and locals and is a favorite location for weddings and wedding party photographs for couples throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and such an icon that a miniature replica of it was built in Disney's California Adventure in Anaheim.
The Palace of Fine Arts was one of ten palaces at the heart of the Panama-Pacific Exhibition, which also included the exhibit palaces of Education, Liberal Arts, Manufactures, Varied Industries, Agriculture, Food Products, Transportation, Mines and Metallurgy and the Palace of Machinery. The Palace of Fine Arts was designed by Bernard Maybeck, who took his inspiration from Roman and Ancient Greek architecture in designing what was essentially a fictional ruin from another time.
Built around a small artificial lagoon, the Palace of Fine Arts is composed of a wide, 1,100 ft (340 m) pergola around a central rotunda situated by the water. The lagoon was intended to echo those found in classical settings in Europe, where the expanse of water provides a mirror surface to reflect the grand buildings and an undisturbed vista to appreciate them from a distance.
The Palace of Fine Arts was not the only building from the exposition to escape demolition. The Japanese Tea House (not to be confused with the Japanese Tea House that remains in Golden Gate Park, which dates from an 1894 fair) was purchased in 1915 by land baron E.D. Swift and was transported by barge down the Bay to Belmont, California where it stands to this day.

Palace of Fine Arts
This time Sean and I are at San Francisco's Palace of Fine Arts on a brisk December morning and loving it. The Palace was one of the crowning jewels of the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition celebrating Magellan's discovery of the Pacific Ocean 500 years earlier and also the completion of the Panama Canal. Many people saw it as San Francisco's triumphal return after the devastating San Francisco Earthquake of 1906.
The Palace of Fine Arts was designed by a well-known California architect, Bernard Ralph Maybeck and the decorative elements were designed by William Merchant, a young member of his office. The Palace blended Roman architecture with Greek ornamentation and many people saw it as the most beautiful building at the fair.
Made of a cheap building material called staff (a mixture of plaster and burlap) and only meant to last two years, the people of San Francisco could not tear down the Palace when they dismantled the rest of the fair. They kept the building up as long as they could but the wind, the weather, and the years took their effect and in the late 1940's the building was condemned. Left to rot, In 1964, the original building was finally torn down. But thanks to the efforts of San Francisco's Board of Supervisors and civic organizations such as the Fine Arts League, funds were raised to completely rebuild the Palace with poured concrete and steel -- so that it could last forever.
Walking among its colonnades, underneath its rotunda, and along the lagoon is a magical experience. It's part Greek, part Roman, part old time Hollywood religious movie, part new-age astral plane, and all time incredible. Sean and I highly recommend that you add this enchanted spot to your travel itinerary.
The blend of ragtime, American march, and surreal musical score is thanks to Scott Joplin (The Chrysanthemum), John Phillip Sousa (El Capitan), and Satie, Gymnopedia #1. My apologies to all three of those guys for my piano playing!
Palace of Fine Arts. San Francisco. August 2018
The Palace of Fine Arts was one of ten palaces at the heart of the Panama-Pacific Exhibition, which also included the exhibit palaces of Education, Liberal Arts, Manufactures, Varied Industries, Agriculture, Food Products, Transportation, Mines and Metallurgy and the Palace of Machinery. The Palace of Fine Arts was designed by Bernard Maybeck, who took his inspiration from Roman and Ancient Greek architecture in designing what was essentially a fictional ruin from another time.
While most of the exposition was demolished when the exposition ended, the Palace was so beloved that a Palace Preservation League, founded by Phoebe Apperson Hearst, was founded while the fair was still in progress.
For a time the Palace housed a continuous art exhibit, and during the Great Depression, W.P.A. artists were commissioned to replace the decayed Robert Reid murals on the ceiling of the rotunda. From 1934 to 1942 the exhibition hall was home to eighteen lighted tennis courts. During World War II it was requisitioned by the military for storage of trucks and jeeps. At the end of the war, when the United Nations was created in San Francisco, limousines used by the world's statesmen came from a motor pool there. From 1947 on the hall was put to various uses: as a city Park Department warehouse; as a telephone book distribution center; as a flag and tent storage depot; and even as temporary Fire Department headquarters.
While the Palace had been saved from demolition, its structure was not stable. Originally intended to only stand for the duration of the Exhibition, the colonnade and rotunda were not built of durable materials, and thus framed in wood and then covered with staff, a mixture of plaster and burlap-type fiber. Because of the construction and vandalism, by the 1950s the simulated ruin was, in fact, a crumbling ruin.
In 1964, the original Palace was demolished, with only the steel structure of the exhibit hall left standing. The buildings were then reconstructed in permanent, light-weight, poured-in-place concrete, and steel I-beams were hoisted into place for the dome of the rotunda. All the decorations and sculpture were constructed anew. The only changes were the absence of the murals in the dome, two end pylons of the colonnade, and the original ornamentation of the exhibit hall.
In 1969, the former Exhibit Hall became home to the Exploratorium interactive museum, and, in 1970, also became the home of the 966-seat Palace of Fine Arts Theater. In 2003, the City of San Francisco along with the Maybeck Foundation created a public-private partnership to restore the Palace and by 2010 work was done to restore and seismically retrofit the dome, rotunda, colonnades and lagoon. In January 2013, the Exploratorium closed in preparation for its permanent move to the Embarcadero.

We recently visited the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, the filming location for the 1996 blockbuster action movie The Rock.
This is of course is from the scene where Mason (Sean Connery) confronts his daughter (Claire Forlani) about his future plans. Before he can finish, he is caught by Stanley Goodspeed (Nicolas Cage) and brought to the FBI mobile command center at Pier 39.
