Highly recommended. The scenery is beyond imagination. You don't go back to the Lower Antelope Canyon, but you have to go back and forth to the Upper Antelope Canyon. Tip the tour guide during the tour to get the best photo tips. You can only take photos in the valley, not photography. The time on the order is the meeting time, not the departure time.
This is the location where Microsoft's wallpaper was shot. I came here at noon and what I saw was even more beautiful than the pictures. The key is not to expose myself to the sun. Walking inside, I just wanted to take pictures non-stop to record everything I saw! The key is that it is easy to walk and not tiring!

Standing on the edge of the cliff of Grand Canyon National Park, the scenery in front of you will make you hold your breath. The rock layers are like a painting of time, from reddish brown to golden yellow, and each layer has witnessed the changes of the earth for billions of years. The canyon is deep and magnificent, the Colorado River meanders at the bottom of the valley, the sun shines on the rock walls, and the colors change with time, which is so beautiful that people are reluctant to look away.
You can feel the shock of the Grand Canyon more by exploring on foot. Whether it is the Bright Angel Trail on the South Rim or the Kaibab Trail on the North Rim, you can see the canyon scenery from different angles along the way. There are steep cliffs under your feet and endless wilderness in the distance. Walking in it is both exciting and awed. If you have enough time, take a helicopter to overlook the canyon, or ride a mule deep into the valley. The feeling of being there is even more indescribable. In the face of such a magnificent nature, any language seems pale. Only by experiencing it in person can you feel its true shock.
Grand Canyon National Park is absolutely stunning! The massive, colorful expanses are incredibly beautiful and almost surreal to look at. Whether you're into hiking or just want to take in the views, it's a place that makes you feel small in the best possible way. Definitely a must-visit!

A natural wonder located near Page City, Arizona, USA... It brings together a variety of landforms... For example, a ray of sky, a small sand waterfall, and the Tyndall effect of light... Flash floods and erosion are one of the main reasons for the formation of Antelope Canyon. It is a natural scenery that is worth a walk and a look...
The beauty of the Antelope Canyon has long been famous. If it were in China, it would surely be crowded with people. In this Indian reservation, although there are also a constant stream of tourists, the number of places is limited each day. Each team is led by an Indian guide with more than ten people, and the order is maintained. Although there are many rules, including not being able to take photos on the stairs, not posing, and not bringing any bags, etc., to ensure that each team can pass more smoothly.

This attraction is private. We parked our car in the parking lot and took a pickup truck into the area. The ride was about 15 minutes, a bumpy dirt road, but it was fun and filled with laughter. The guide patiently helped us take photos. Clearly trained photographers, his photos were more vibrant than those taken by tourists themselves. Everyone tipped the guide. Upper Antelope Canyon, a valley cleft that displays wondrous colors under the sunlight, is quite expensive. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The Antelope Valley is divided into the Upper Antelope Valley and the Lower Antelope Valley. We went to the Upper Antelope Valley this time. We bought tickets online for a long time in advance. The best time of noon was 140 dollars per person. It was very expensive and distressing, but I thought that my parents could only go to the United States once. I still need to take a look. The fares are cheaper at other times, but the photo effect will be slightly worse. The whole Shangyang Valley is not long, and the visit time is 1 hour. The outbound car is directly pulled to the valley mouth, 20 minutes on the road. After the visit, you need to walk a lot of steps down to get on the bus. The elderly with inconvenient legs and feet will be a little hard. The valley is really a lot, the tour guide will explain, guide and help create photo effects. The speed of the round-trip is very fast and the wind is very bumpy. Although it is more expensive, I still have to take a look.

Horseshoe Bay, Antelope Valley and Lake Powell are very close to the three scenic spots, and the play is arranged for a day. The first stop to Horseshoe Bay, the parking lot is some distance from Horseshoe Bay, or go uphill for nearly 20 minutes. Although Horseshoe Bay is only a bay, the color contrast of the red soil and green water forms a beautiful scenery. Multiple angles can be taken, the higher the place, the better the photo effect. The scenery on the way back and forth is also good, all left in the picture
Here and Antelope Valley are the essence of the Grand Canyon of Colorado. The best thing is that there is no wall and gate, no tickets, original ecological landscape, highly recommended! The only inconvenience is that you need to drive by yourself, and ordinary group tourists can't touch it!

On the way from Phoenix to Page, we passed through three areas with completely different geological features and vegetation. When we first left Phoenix, we saw columnar cacti on both sides of the road. As the altitude increased, the cacti and other low shrubs disappeared, replaced by tall pine forests, and finally the barren plateau with Danxia landform characteristics. It was amazing!
Mother road. I never understood the meaning of Route 66, but this sign explains it clearly. Whenever there was political or economic turmoil, people would go west along Route 66 to find opportunities. Route 66 was also one of the earliest roads in the early days of the development of the American automobile industry.

Grand Canyon West offers breathtaking views of the canyon’s dramatic landscapes, with highlights like the famous Skywalk—a glass bridge extending over the canyon for a thrilling experience. Managed by the Hualapai Tribe, it provides unique cultural insights alongside natural beauty. While less crowded than the South Rim, it’s more commercialized, but still a must-visit for stunning vistas and adventure activities.
Grand Canyon West Rim is just a small part of the vast territory of canyons that were formed thanks to the Colorado River, but this, I think, is the most beautiful and famous part of it. The Grand Canyon West Rim is located just a couple of hours away from Las Vegas in Arizona, so it would be very advisable from the point of view of saving time and money to combine visits to these two places into one trip. The entire territory of the Grand Canyon is located on the reservation of the Navajo, Havasupai and Hualapai Indians. You can stay at any viewing point as long as you want, then just go to the bus stop and wait for the next bus that will take you to another point or to the exit.The canyon is cut by the Colorado River in the thickness of limestones, shales and sandstones. The canyon is 446 km long. The width (at the plateau level) ranges from 6 to 29 km, at the bottom level — less than a kilometer. The depth is up to 1800 m. Since 1979, the Grand Canyon has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.

nice views every view you see is amazing beautiful I wish I could live there looking at those views out my kitchen window loved it
The Skywalk observation deck is located in the northwest of Arizona, in the Grand Canyon National Park of the USA. The Grand Canyon Skywalk got its name because of its unusual design. The Skywalk platform is made in the shape of an arc and has a transparent bearing surface.Stepping onto a transparent floor with a view of the abyss requires a certain amount of courage from the tourist. Most likely, this is the quality of the Skywalk that makes this site so popular with tourists traveling around the United States. The height of the abyss under the platform (under the transparent floor is 1 kilometer 219 meters). The floor glass is created using a unique technology and has increased transparency.In order not to accidentally scratch the glass floor, all visitors are given special

Today, the driver's team went to the monument, which was not arranged during the driver's 2016 RV driving around the western United States. Monument Valley actually includes a large area around the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, and the Navajo reservation is equivalent to a national park.
Tickets are $8 per person!
Really worth it! Worth going!
It is recommended to drive an SUV/pickup truck to go in for a walk.
It is really enjoyable to stand on the sunroof of the car, be careful of the dust.
Tourists who drive small cars can also ride in their cars.
There are also horses raised inside

most developed area of Grand Canyon National Park, the South Rim offers amenities such as bus service, hotels and water stations, but is also more crowded than the North Rim.
There are several routes to the Grand Canyon, namely the south, north and west. The north is relatively remote, and many of the west routes are one-day tours with glass plank roads. The south edge is full of self-guided tourists. You can stay in Tusayan for one night first, and then spend the whole day here the next day. You can park your car in a free parking lot nearby, and then take the free sightseeing bus of the scenic area. The sightseeing bus will stop at every sightseeing spot until the end, so you can choose to get off at the point you want to see, and just walk a short distance. After watching, wait for the next bus to take you to the next point, or you can choose to walk to the next point. In short, it is quite convenient. Pay attention to sun protection, bring enough water and dry food, there are no shops or vendors selling things along the way, only one at the end.
