The Golden Gate Bridge I went to United States last year. San Francisco is the first city I stopped by. The plane left Beijing to San Francisco, taking almost 11 hours crossing the Pacific Ocean I saw the Golden Gate Bridge from the window when the plane was declining. I had heard of the bridge when I was young, and only seen it from TV. So I was so excited to see the real one. I couldn’t help to visiting it. After checked in my hotel, I went to the Gate immediately. When I arrived there, the sky was turning dark. The lights on the bridge were all lighten, the bright orange bridge contrasted with the dark blue sky, making it much more beautiful and magnificent in the evening. Have you paid attention to the cable holding the bridge, I thought it just as thick as a rope. I didn’t realize that the cable on the bridge was so thick, that it couldn’t be embraced by stretched arms. Walking on the bridge, you could not but admire this great project. It was deep in October, the wind blew from the ocean was very chilly. I ran shoreside quickly. On reaching the end of the bridge, the wind diminished suddenly. Looking back to the bridge, I found that the fog had surrounded the bridge unwittingly; I couldn’t see the top of the bridge due to the fog. At the same time, a beam of shining colored light from the bottom of the bridge rayed into the sky. Looked like the light was about to tear out the sky, making the bridge mysterious. So wonderful!

No, it isn't a steel wire rope. It is really a single huge cable rope. for more information: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Golden_Gate_Bridge_architecture_10.jpg
