Mirror Lake and the surrounding paths are a sightseeing scenic spot in Yosemite National Park. The environment is very good. The paths are up and down. It feels very good to walk. It is a more distinctive one of the many walking trails in Yosemite.
It is impossible to reach by car here, so you can only take the shuttle bus in the park. The scenery is good, there is a lake between the two mountains, the water is not big when we go, I believe that the water is more beautiful when it is big. Looking up, a cloud hides in the middle of two mountains in the distance, as if hiding something. The lake, grass, yellow trees, valleys and white clouds feel like a peaceful serenade in a beautiful place.
