Though Snopes could not determine the original source of the photograph above, our newsroom compared it to authentic visuals of Golden Gate Park. We have no reason to doubt the authenticity of its depiction and have therefore rated this claim as “True.”
An aerial view of the park hosted by Google Maps confirmed the location of several of the prominent features in the photograph shared to social media, including the large, green square, which is the Golden Gate Park Polo Field, and a water feature, known as Stow Lake, surrounding Strawberry Hill.

A r everse-image search revealed that the Golden Gate Park Golf Course also hosted a nearly identical photograph taken from the same perspective. At over 1,000 acres , Golden Gate Park dates back to 1870. It’s estimated that an average of 25 million people have visited the park annually in the 21st century.
