  Yosemite National Park

A World Heritage Site in California since 1984, Yosemite National Park is best known for the striking beauty of Yosemite Valley, whose flat floor contrasts with nearly vertical granite walls over which pour several major waterfalls. In addition, Yosemite includes an extensive high-mountain wilderness of mountain peaks, rivers, meadows, and groves of giant sequoia trees.
