The display commemorates the role of Chinese immigrants from 1874 to 1933.
They lived and worked in Wawona and Yosemite as cooks, gardeners, hotel staff and trail workers.
Chinese workers also helped build roads to Yosemite Valley, the Washburn Trail to the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, and Tioga Road.
