Location:

Coordinates: 37°44′27″N 119°35′26″W

Address: Yosemite Valley

Description:

Date Built: 1879

Unless you are a bride, or groom, you may not have been to this building before. While it has, in my opinion the best view of Yosemite Falls in the Valley, not many people in comparison will come to this site to enjoy it. It has been part of the Valley scenery since 1879. Thousands of people have been married here. Many more have been memorialized here as well-there is a registry of those who have been laid to rest in the park located at the site. Here you can get a feeling of serenity and peace from the rush of the Valley.
