Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona, USA

Grand Canyon National Park (Grand Canyon National Park) 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, of which the most spectacular and deepest section of about 170 kilometers was designated as the Grand Canyon National Park in 1919, and later listed as one of the world's natural heritage. The Colorado River meanders on the Colorado Plateau, and the Grand Canyon is formed by the continuous erosion of the Colorado River, so it is also called the Colorado Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon generally runs from east to west, starting from the confluence of the Colorado River to the vicinity of the Grand Wash Cliffs near the Nevada border. The shape is extremely irregular, winding and twisting, and the width of the top of the canyon is between 6-30 kilometers, narrowing down to a V shape. The north bank is higher than the south, the maximum valley depth is more than 1500 meters, the width of the water surface at the bottom of the valley is less than a kilometer, the narrowest place is only 120 meters, the peculiar scenery of the canyon, the vast spirit, is 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. Because the West Canyon is an Indian protected area, it is not within the scope of the national park. Among them, the South Rim is the most visited route by tourists, and its self-driving road is also quite perfect; the North Rim is higher in altitude, the air is thin, but the sky is blue and clear, it is a place of tranquility and peace.
