A foggy tribute: hidden in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park

George Sterling was the toast of San Francisco's literary scene, a poet whose fame echoed through the city. But his memorial - a tribute dedicated a decade and a half after his death - is a different kind of tribute. Standing at the entrance to the Golden Gate Park, the George Sterling Memorial is a shrine for those seeking romance or solace, nestled in the heart of the city's park. Friday night visitors can often find candles flickering among the green foliage and the grand limbs of the century-old oaks, as people leave messages to their loved ones. But despite its popularity among locals, the George Sterling Memorial remains a hidden gem, visible only to those who make the trek to the top of a long hill, under the embrace of the city's foggy mist.
