Angel Island State Park
I take the ferry to Angel Island whenever I need to remember what the phrase 'the city from the water' actually means. But I go for the immigration station.
A state park island in San Francisco Bay that served as an immigration station from 1910 to 1940. The barracks walls still bear poetry carved by detained Chinese immigrants, discovered in 1970.
