Description
Dante’s View, named for Dante Alighieri, author of Divina Commedia (The Devine Comedy), is one of the more popular places in Death Valley National Park. It provides a wonderful vista over Badwater Basin, the lowest point in the Continental United States, the Panamint Mountains, and more. There is a well built viewing area with several very informative informational signs. I liked the graceful lines of the curving wall and how they formed a nice leading line to the warmly lit clouds in the late afternoon light on this January day. Rest assured, while the Kelvin temperature of the light may have been nice and warm, the Fahrenheit temperature of the air was anything but! Dress warmly if you visit this place in winter!
