China Beach - San Francisco
China Beach, with a view to the Golden Gate Bridge and Marin Headlands, the marker describes how the beach acquired its name from the fact that Chinese fisherman used the area as a campsite.
According to the Western Neighborhoods Project which documents some history of the area, the marker isn't entirely accurate -- that the beach was known for much longer as Phelan Beach, after the Chinese were expelled from the area.
