Rincon Park sits on the Embarcadero in downtown San Francisco and is a must-visit spot with beautiful views of the Bay Bridge. On the large grassy field stands the iconic Cupid's Span sculpture, a 70-foot bow and arrow created by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen in 2002. This spot also serves as a great location to cheer on runners during the San Francisco Marathon, as the race finishes here. The park includes a shelter, restroom, and a steel-mesh windbreak for windy days.
