American National Parks

American National Parks are protected areas established to conserve the natural environment, wildlife, and cultural heritage of the United States. The National Park Service manages these parks, which showcase diverse landscapes—from mountains and forests to deserts and wetlands. They offer opportunities for recreation, such as hiking, camping, and wildlife viewing, while preserving the land for future generations. The first national park, Yellowstone, was created in 1872, setting a precedent for protecting the country's natural beauty and biodiversity. Today, there are over 60 national parks, each with unique features and significance.
