Free Admission to the Most Amazing Museum

To be honest, I used to think museums were boring, but after attending some free museum days, I learned that it's pretty fun and best of all, it's FREE. Most free admission day for museums are within the first week of the month. That includes the Legion of Honor, which has there free admission day every first Tuesday of the month. If you go on a regular, non-free day to the Legion of Honor it would cost adults $10, seniors $7, youth (between the ages 13 to 17) and college students with ID $6. I highly recommend everyone to at least go to the Legion of Honor once in their life time and Tuesday November 6, 2012 is the day to go!

Price

100% free for general admission, but if you want to go to the special exhibits, it would cost you some money.

What Time you Say?

They are open from 9:30 AM to 5:15 PM. You can definitely come visit the Legion of Honor in the morning for like 3 hours and still have time to vote later on in the day!

Transportation/Parking

• They have their own parking lot and it's free of charge.
• The best way to get to the Legion of Honor by bus is to take the 18 bus, which stops directly in front of the museum. You can also take the 1 bus line to 33rd Avenue and Clement Street or the 38 bus line to 33rd Avenue and Geary Street and transfer to the 18 bus. You can also walk there after getting off the 1 bus line or 38 bus line but it is approximately half a mile walk.

One cool thing about taking the bus to Legion of Honor is, if you go on a non-free day, you can get $2 off adult admission ticket by showing your bus transfer. 

Weather

It's going to be another nice and sunny day with temperature in the high 80's to low 50's. This place is definitely worth seeing on a sunny day!

Where is it Located at?

There address is:

100 34th Avenue

San Francisco, CA 94121

They are actually located inside Lincoln Park so you would actually drive through the park to reach there. Don't be intimated that you think you're going the wrong way. If you enter from 34th Avenue, on either Geary or Clement, it should be okay.

I'm telling you guys/girls, this is by far the most amazing, eye-popping museum ever!When you enter into Lincoln Park, you have to go through a bunch of wooded area and when you reach the Legion of Honor, it would look like you just entered into your mansion. One side of the museum, you have the view of the ocean and the Golden Gate Bridge. There's even benches there overlooking this area and a trial that leads you down to near the ocean. It's absolutely gorgeous and the way you enter the museum is like walking into a Greek palace. There is also a big fountain, and a partial view of the city. You have to go for yourself and see with your own eyes!

P.S. Having the general admission ticket from Legion of Honor also admits you into the de Young museum for free too!! Definitely check it out. Browse around the Legion of Honor and de Young website to find more information!
