This is a true hidden gem of San Diego. One of the most beautiful places in the entire county. The architecture is truelly stunning. The view is like something that pictures or videos just can't do justice. It is only a beauty that can be experienced when in is presence.

Awesome view. It must be hard to keep the scientists from staring out the window, instead of on their work. But I'm amazed that this is open to the public. Anyway, I am very lucky that I grew up in the 1950s. This was when the vaccine was made public. So I grew up in a world where I could enjoy the summer, swimming with others. Carefree, not having to worry about getting sick.

Salk is such a beautiful place to visit! The views are astonishing! The facility is located right near a cliff where they do paragliding and it is truly amazing to see! Sam is also where Jonas Salk invented the polo vaccine and many other scientific discoveries and innovations took place here so truly a cool place to visit and learn about!

very striking architecture, sharp and dignified. The water elements add a nice touch that complement the overall aesthetic.
