The Golden Gate is the one with the reddish-brown paint.
;-)

We walk across all the time.
It's a pretty substantial distance from Moscone (about 7 miles as the 
crow flies) so if you are stuck in town w/o a car, you might consider 
renting a bike and riding along the Embarcadero around to the Golden 
Gate (like in the movie Vertigo).  You will possibly be surprised to 
find quite a mob of people on the bridge at almost any time.
