Artist Point, Yellowstone National Park Overview

This breathtakingly scenic point on the south rim of the Grand Canyon is a view you just cannot miss!

For the most perfect vacation picture, there is no better place than artist point. The waterfall in the centre crashing down, surrounded by canyons of pink and yellow and dotted with trees, the scenery couldn't get any better! The Artist Point was named so based on a mistake, actually. This splendid view was thought to be the point where Thomas Moran created his many paintings when Frank Haynes was photographing the area. It was later revealed that it was actually the north rim where he painted, but the name was already too popular, and it's already so beautiful, nobody really minded calling it Artist Point!
