Construction underway for new visitor center on east side of Zion National Park

Описание: Construction is underway for a new visitor center on the east side of Zion National Park.

The park currently gets about 5 million visitors a year, which has doubled in the past decade. The new center is part of a larger renovation to the east side to "expand visitor experience".

"We're able to not only preserve the wild, open scenery, expand the visitor experience, but also boost the economic return of these places," said Stephani Lyon with the Zion Forever Project, who is helping lead the effort.
