Enter Yellowstone National Park - the world's first national park, where pristine savanna forests and colorful hot springs weave a breathtaking picture of the ancient Yellowstone volcanic plateau!
Itinerary:
Yellowstone National Park (stop at Norris, Yellowstone Canyon, Lower Falls, Yellowstone Lake, Artist Point, Palette, Mud Volcano, Old Faithful, Upper Falls, Grand Prism and other attractions. The tour guide will make adjustments based on the actual situation on the day, please refer to the actual arrangement)
Yellowstone National Park Yellowstone National Park
It is located in the Rocky Mountains, known as the "Backbone of America", on the lava plateau between the Northern Rockies and the Central Rockies in the western United States. The geothermal wonder is his symbol, a primitive landscape tempered by water and fire. The natural landscape in the park is divided into five major areas, namely Mammoth Area, Roosevelt Area, Canyon Area, Geyser Area and Lake Area. Each of the five scenic areas has its own characteristics. Beyond the limits of what human art can express, it is the most wonderful and spectacular beauty on the face of the earth.
Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone
The 97-kilometer-long Yellowstone River is said to be "the only river in the United States without dams." Here, the river water suddenly becomes rapid, breaking away with splashing water, forming two magnificent waterfalls, roaring into the Grand Canyon and heading straight to the Pacific Ocean. These two waterfalls: one is the upper waterfall, which is 33 meters high; the other is the lower waterfall, which is 94 meters high. It looks like it was painted with gorgeous oil paints. Even if it is exposed to wind and sun without scruples, the colors are still so gorgeous. These "stubborn" colors will neither be washed away nor faded by wind and sun. People who have been here marvel at the magical power of nature.
Lower Yellowstone River Falls
The Lower Yellowstone Falls were formed by the erosion of softer rocks by the Yellowstone River. To appreciate the majesty of the Lower Falls, the observation deck is the best observation point. Artist Point is another classic viewing point of the canyon and the Lower Falls.
Artist Point Artist Point
The scenery here is particularly spectacular. The canyon is more than three hundred feet deep. The walls of the canyon are mainly yellow, mixed with black, red and pink, and green pine trees. The colors are mixed and not chaotic, looking like a peacock's tail in full bloom, or like the pointillism of a Romantic painter who dotted several layers of colors in the same place.
Yellowstone Fountain Paint Pot
The Palette is a mud fountain. Minerals in the soil and rocks are dissolved by acidic hot springs to form mud. Because the muddy water is very viscous, you can also clearly see the slow formation and collapse of bubbles. The soil around the fountain looks like dried oil paint, causing the fountain itself to look like a pot of water in which the oil paint has been washed, like a painter's drawing board, filled with colorful spices.
Mud Volcano Area Mud Volcano Area
It is located in the eastern part of Yellowstone Park, not far to the north of Yellowstone Lake. Most of the fountains here spout not water, but mud, and the ground shakes every time it erupts. Next to the mud volcano, colorful grass grows, which looks extremely soft and gorgeous.
Old Faithful Geyser Old Faithful Geyser
Old Faithful Geyser is named for its consistent and regular eruptions. Currently, it erupts approximately every 60 to 110 minutes. Each eruption lasts for four to five minutes. The water column reaches a height of more than 40 meters. It is spectacular and never stops. The Old Faithful Visitor Center will lay out the eruption timetable in advance, so you can check the eruption time first and then go sightseeing with confidence.
Upper Yellowstone Falls
The upper waterfall is located 400 meters upstream of the larger Yellowstone Falls. The waterfall flows vertically down the volcanic cliff with a height of 33 meters. The originally uneven volcanic rocks below the waterfall have been smoothed by hundreds of years of erosion by the waterfall.
The Grand Prismatic Hot Spring in Yellowstone
Also known as the Colorful Pool, it is the largest hot spring in the United States and the third largest in the world, with a width of 75-91 meters and a depth of 49 meters. About 2,000 liters of hot water at 71 degrees gushes out every minute. The amazing thing about Grand Prismatic Hot Springs is that the color of the lake changes with the seasons. In spring, the lake changes from emerald green to golden orange due to microorganisms such as algae and pigment-containing bacteria living in the mineral-rich water. In mid-summer, the chlorophyll content is relatively low, so the lake appears a brilliant orange, red or yellow color. But in the cold winter months, due to lack of light, these microorganisms will produce more chlorophyll to suppress the color of carotenoids, so the water body will appear a deep dark green.

Yellowstone National Park (stop at West Thumb Geyser, etc.) → Grand Teton National Park (60 minutes) → Jackson → Antler Park (60 minutes) → Salt Lake City → Temple Square (60 minutes) → Puwat
West Thumb Geyser Basin West Thumb Geyser Basin
The West Thumb Geyser Basin is located on the edge of Yellowstone Lake. It was formed due to the collapse of the earth's crust 150,000 years ago. The combination of hot fountains and lake water creates a wonderful smoky landscape: the smoky place is the steam of the hot springs, and the green waves are filled with Yellowstone lake water. It complements the blue sky and white clouds in the background, forming a landscape that is different from other hot spring areas in Yellowstone. This is equivalent to the bay of Yellowstone Lake. Many geysers gather here. The colors of the water spout are various, some are transparent green, and some are dark black like cement color. Many water spouts present a beautiful illusion.
Grand Teton National Park Grand Teton National Park
Grand Teton National Park was established on February 26, 1929. There are 300 kilometers of trails in Grand Teton National Park. There are many lakes in the park, including Jackson Lake and Jenny Lake. Most of Grand Teton National Park is located within the Rocky Mountains, and the natural landscape is spectacular. In addition, Grand Teton National Park also has extremely rich biological resources, including American bison, grizzly bears, black bears, moose, etc.
Elk Antler Arches Park
The park is not big, with giant arches made of antlers in the four directions of east, west, north and south. The antlers are all top quality, but these antlers are not obtained from hunting. Every winter, a large number of elk come from the mountains to the National Elk Refuge in Jackson to spend the winter. In the spring, the antlers naturally fall off and are renewed. After the elk leave, countless treasures are left everywhere.
Temple Square Temple Square
Salt Lake City, Utah, is the global base of Mormonism. It is a group of buildings belonging to the headquarters of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) in the center of Salt Lake City, Utah, including the Salt Lake City Temple, Salt Lake City Chapel, Salt Lake City Assembly Hall, Seagull Monument and two visitor centers, covering an area of 10 acres.
In the morning we will drive to Bryce Canyon National Park. Bryce is not so much a canyon as it is a huge open-air arena. The towering brown stone layers are like the natural terracotta warriors and horses that guard the world. In the afternoon, we arrived at the Lower Antelope Canyon, the most unique slit cave in the world and one of the top ten photography locations in the world. The mottled red sandstone turns into brilliant colors through the refraction of natural light, which is like a dream. Then head to Horseshoe Bend – one of the top ten best photography locations in the United States selected by National Geographic. Overnight in Tiba.

Bryce Canyon National Park Bryce Canyon National Park
Bryce Canyon National Park is located in southwestern Utah, USA. Although its name contains the word canyon, it is not a real canyon, but a huge natural amphitheater formed by erosion along the east side of the Ponsagunt Plateau. Its unique geographical formations, called lithosphere, are formed by wind, water and ice erosion from rivers, and sedimentary rocks from lake beds. The red, orange and white rocks within it form a unique natural landscape, so it is known as the palace of natural stone figurines.
Lower Antelope Canyon Lower Antelope Canyon
Lower Antelope Canyon is located in northern Arizona, USA. It was formed from soft sandstone after millions of years of various erosion forces. Flash floods often flow into the canyon during the monsoon season. Due to the sudden increase in rainfall, the flow rate of the flash flood is quite fast. In addition, the narrow channel narrows the river channel, so the vertical erosion force becomes relatively larger, forming a corridor at the bottom of Lower Antelope Canyon and a hard and smooth edge like flowing water on the canyon wall. There is no artificial lighting in Lower Antelope Canyon. All visible light comes from the cracks at the top of the canyon. The light is repeatedly refracted by the rock texture and enters the valley bottom, producing dreamlike irregular color changes. These colors range from deep to light, colorful and beautiful.
Horseshoe Bend Horseshoe Bend
Horseshoe Bend – one of the top 10 best photography locations in the United States by National Geographic! The dense aquatic plants on the Colorado River bed make the river water appear fluorescent green in the sunlight. The river turns 360 degrees in the reddish-brown canyon, cutting a horseshoe-shaped canyon, hence the name Horseshoe Bend. Standing on the edge of the cliff, you will be immersed in the breathtaking beauty of the clear water, blue sky and red rocks.
In the early morning, we drove to the Grand Canyon National Park, one of the seven wonders of the world, to appreciate the magic of the Creator and to be in it, which is so spectacular.
