The incredible beauty of Yosemite Valley in California has deeply affected millions of people over time. Thanks to the foresight of a few of them, this stunning place was protected for public use and recreation for future generations. On this day in 1864, President Abraham Lincoln formally set aside the land that would later become Yosemite National Park and visitors have been enjoying it ever since.
