Arizona, USA. Grand Canyon National Park. Experience the wonders of the sea of ​​clouds. Essential travel guide.

Grand Canyon National Park in the United States is one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Located on the Colorado Plateau in the northwest of Arizona. The Grand Canyon is 443 kilometers long, and the most magnificent and deepest section, about 170 kilometers long, was designated as the Grand Canyon National Park in 1919 and later included as one of the world's natural heritage sites. The Colorado River winds through the Colorado Plateau, and the Grand Canyon is formed by the constant erosion of the Colorado River, hence it is also known as the Grand Canyon of Colorado. The Grand Canyon runs roughly east to west, from the point where the Colorado River meets, to the Grand Wash Cliffs near the Nevada state line. Its shape is extremely irregular, winding and twisting, with the top of the canyon ranging from 6 to 30 kilometers wide and narrowing into a V-shape below. The north bank is higher than the south bank, with a maximum depth of over 1500 meters and a width of less than a kilometer at the bottom of the valley. The unique scenery and grandeur of the canyon are unparalleled in the world. The Grand Canyon National Park is divided into two major parts, the South Rim and the North Rim, each with its own characteristics. The West Rim belongs to the Indian reservation and is not within the scope of the national park. The South Rim is the most visited route by tourists, and its self-driving road is also built quite perfectly; the North Rim is at a higher altitude with thin air, but the sky is as blue as can be, making it a peaceful and tranquil place.
