List of scenic spots in the Grand Canyon of the United States

Grand Canyon, Rock Arch National Park, Indian Heritage Park, Bryce Park, Devil's Garden, Canyon attractions, Lake Mead and Lake Powell, and scenery on both sides. The northern edge is more than 300 meters higher than the southern edge, which is a place rarely visited by tourists. It is not only remote, but also closed by snow and ice in winter, and it will not open until mid-May and mid-June. But this does not mean that the scenery on the northern edge is not spectacular enough. If you like to stare blankly at the amazing scenery, if tourists make less noise, isn't that exactly what you want?

The center of the northern edge is in the bright angel area, where there are hotels, restaurants and tourist centers. But the hotels here are more expensive, and a room costs more than 100 yuan. There are no free buses here, whether by car or on foot. The Grand Canyon is connected by dozens of national parks, the most famous of which are Cylon National Park, braz National Park, arches national park and Memorial Valley. These places should also be the main places to visit:

1. cylon national park: turn from 15 to highway 9, and you will arrive at cylon national park. The boulders, cliffs and red clay mountain bags here are all worth shooting.

2.Braez National Park: Starting from Cylon National Park, turn to Highway 89, and then turn east to Highway 12, which is Braez National Park. The most famous here is the red clay Tallinn, which stands in the deep valley like bamboo shoots. You should stay for a long time and shoot beautiful rocks in the morning and evening light.

3. arches national park: Cross the Green River and turn to Highway 70. There are many huge arched rocks in the park. American cross-country car and motorcycle races are often held here. Hotels here are often full during the tourist season, so tourists should be prepared in advance.

4. Memorial Valley: From 19 1 expressway to the south, there is an Indian reserve, also known as "Mexican straw hat scenic spot". From here to the entrance of 163 expressway, there is a straight avenue, and the west side of the road is a huge stone like a monument, so it is called "Memorial Valley". The film Forrest Gump was shot here, and many black and white masterpieces by famous photographers Ansel and Adams also came from here.

5. Lake Powell: From 160 to the west of expressway is Lake Powell. If you have time to go deep into the lake, you will find beautiful scenery.

6. Grand Canyon National Park: The northern edge is at the southern end of Highway 89, which is snowy in winter. This is the best place to shoot snow scenes, and the southern edge is a tourist attraction. In addition, there are several small parks along Highway 24, which can be decided according to the time. 1. During the day, you are likely to encounter problems of poor traffic and insufficient parking lots, especially in summer. The least crowded time is 1 1 to February. But the climate in winter is not suitable for traveling.

2. The average elevation of the southern edge of the Grand Canyon is 2 134m, and the average elevation of the northern edge is 2438m. It takes a lot of effort to climb this canyon. Tourists with respiratory and heart diseases may feel unwell.

You need to book in advance to stay or camp in the park. When you make a reservation, you should indicate whether you live on the northern or southern edge of the Grand Canyon. Campsites are usually full soon, so you need to make a reservation as early as possible.

You can see the Grand Canyon from the car in the south. This part is easy to open, and it is open all year round. The northern edge is higher than the southern edge 1000 feet, and it is covered with snow and ice from the end of 10 to the middle of May every year.

All hotels have colorful pages of one-day tour provided by different companies, and the Grand Canyon tour takes a whole day. Some people take a bus (it takes 4.5 hours for one way), some people fly, and most people take a helicopter. The former has $ 130 and $ 150, while the latter has $300 and $450.

6. You can get all kinds of travel promotional materials to the Grand Canyon in hotels and other places in Las Vegas. It is said that more than 30 travel agencies are "grabbing business". You should pay attention to shopping around, and there are different "current prices" in different seasons. Try to bargain. If you go by plane, it may cost four or five hundred dollars, but if you find the right way, it may cost two or three hundred dollars. The air route and the bus route should have their own characteristics, but if you are not in a hurry, I recommend driving by car first, followed by the bus tour of the travel agency. Not only because it's cheap (about 100 yuan a day), but also because you can enjoy the scenery in detail on the ground, there are many shooting opportunities, and you can also listen to the tour guide (China Travel Agency has Chinese) to increase more knowledge. The scenery on the plane is spectacular, but it is difficult to shoot because of the bumps, and the only English explanation will be covered by noise. You can see the most beautiful and special scenery on foot, but you must have a certain level of donkey friends.
