Yosemite is my favorite park to visit. There is so much to do and it is all breathtaking! One downside is that if you don't stay in the park you will spend atleast 2 hours waiting in traffic to get in each day.

The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. It is the almost in the center on Yosemite valley and one can see two famous points from this place- half dome and upper yosemite falls.

Great place with lots of explanations and history and a movie theater that shows interesting moves about Yosemite, although you really should just be going out and seeing things for yourself. My only complaint is that it's hard to find as my group drove in several circles before realizing that it needed to be walked to.

Imagine the the most spectacular place on earth then magnify it by 10, 20 times and you still couldn't describe the beauty of Yosemite. Then imagine waking up to see a bear stroll by in it's natural environment not locked away in s pin. The splendor of dozens of waterfalls, the "wow" of giant sequoias or breathtaking views from the top of towering granite walls has no equal among earth's many possessions. As a guest you can visit the very studio Ansel Adams perfected his craft capturing the spirit of Yosemite as no one before or since. Walk the very same trails the native American Indians used to hunt to provide for their tribe and discover what they knew, Yosemite is a special spiritual place and needs to be protected for future generations to enjoy as we have. We are all just visitors while here on Earth, why not visit the crown jewel?
