## Overview

A fascinating tour for anyone interested in history, architecture, or famous and unusual geographical features. Also, the perfect choice for great masterpiece photography taking!

Death Valley National Park is the continental United States’ largest park, and also the hottest, driest and lowest. Despite these harsh conditions, the park’s more than 3-million acres are not simply desert plains. They are also home to mountains, canyons, sand dunes, extinct volcanic craters and even palm trees and wildflowers.

Harmony Borax Works was the central feature in the opening of Death Valley and the subsequent popularity of the Furnace Creek area. The plant and associated townsite played an important role in Death Valley history. Rhyolite Ghost Town was inhabited for just 12 years, but it flourished enormously during this short period.
