ISKCON was founded in 1966 in New York City by A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.[2]Its core beliefs are based on Hindu scriptures, particularly the Bhagavad Gita, Bhagavata Purana. ISKCON is "the largest and, arguably, most important branch" of Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition,[3] which has had adherents in India since the early 16th century and American and European devotees since the early 1900s.[4] ISKCON was formed to spread the practice of Bhakti yoga, the practice of love of God in which those involved (bhaktas) dedicate their thoughts and actions towards pleasing Krishna, whom they consider the Supreme Lord.[5] Its most rapid expansion in membership have been within India and (after the collapse of the Soviet Union) in Russia and other formerly Soviet-aligned states of Eastern Europe.[6]Golden Gate Park Golden Gate ParkAerial photograph of Golden Gate Park, 2020Wikimedia | © OpenStreetMapTypeUrban ParkLocationSan Francisco, California, United StatesCoordinates37°46′11″N 122°28′37″WCoordinates: 37°46′11″N 122°28′37″WArea1,017 acres (4.12 km2)OpenedApril 4th, 1870Visitors24 million[1]OpenAll yearU.S. National Register of Historic PlacesU.S. Historic districtArchitectWilliam Hammond Hall John McLarenArchitectural styleOlmsted, Vaux & Co.-influencedNRHP reference No.04001137[2]Added to NRHPOctober 15, 2004Golden Gate Park, located in San Francisco, California, United States, is a large urban park consisting of 1,017 acres (412 ha) of public grounds.
