By simply standing in Yosemite Valley and turning round in a circle, you will cast your eye on more natural wonders in a moment than you could in a full day anywhere else. A beautiful treasure within California, Yosemite is famous for its waterfalls, imposing granite cliffs, giant sequoias, lush meadows, valleys, rivers and lakes that create a wonderful feast for the eyes.
Nestled within this landscape are hundreds of wildlife species including mountain lions, black bears, bats and an assortment of vegetation. Must-see attractions include El Capitan and Half Dome, the two impressive symbols of Yosemite, while must-do activities include hiking one of the numerous trails or swimming in the area’s waters. A veritable playground for the naturalist on holiday in national parks of the USA, it should come as no surprise that some call Yosemite “heaven on earth.”
