West Canyon is the western end canyon of the long Colorado Canyon, referred to as West Canyon, also known as the Grand Canyon West Rim. The West Canyon is a protected area of the Hualapai Indians. It is developed by investors and is not managed by the Grand Canyon National Park. Xixia is only less than three hours one-way from Las Vegas. A U-shaped glass corridor has also been built here for everyone to feel the height and excitement of the canyon.
West Rim Skywalk
The West Canyon Glass Bridge is a "Sky Bridge" conceived by the Chinese and took 10 years to plan and build. It is known as the eighth wonder of the world. This unprecedented project can withstand strong winds, a magnitude 8 earthquake, and bear the weight of 20,000 people. The glass bridge is horseshoe-shaped and is more than 1,000 meters above the ground. The bottom of the entire bridge is made of glass, which is enough to test the courage of tourists. Stand on the glass bridge, overlooking the Grand Canyon and the Colorado River more than 1,000 meters below, and feel the freedom of walking in the clouds.
Today, we will drive to Lower Antelope Canyon: one of the ten most famous photography locations in the world. With the Navajo Indian guide exploring the dreamlike Lower Antelope Canyon, everyone will become a photographer and take unforgettable photos for their own journey. Then go to Horseshoe Bend, known as one of the top ten best photography locations in the United States selected by National Geographic magazine.

Itinerary:
Grand Canyon West → Lower Antelope Canyon (90 minutes) → Horseshoe Bend (60 minutes) → Page
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. stand
Depart in the morning for Lake Powell, the origin of the Grand Canyon. Sitting on a cruise ship in the rippling lake light, you can enjoy Lake Baowei along the narrow valley. The wind is gentle and smooth, the blue waves are like mirrors, and the red rocks are like flames. At this moment, I only want to steal half a day of leisure. Then drive to Bryce Canyon National Park, where towering brownstone rock formations are layered upon layers.
Itinerary:
Lake Powell (you can take a boat trip at your own expense) → Bryce Canyon National Park (60 minutes) → Utah
Lake Powell
It belongs to the joint development area of Indian and national parks. In addition to having a huge amount of water, Lake Powell also has one of the rare wonders in the world, the water canyon. It is like the jasper embedded in the red-orange Colorado Plateau, and it is also a fjord on the Grand Canyon. You can take a cruise to see Lake Powell (at your own expense). You can sit on the cruise ship in the rippling lake light and watch Lake Powell along the narrow valley. The wind is gentle and smooth, the blue waves are like mirrors, and the red rocks are like flames. At this moment, you can only enjoy half a day of leisure.
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. On the edge of the cliff, you can indulge in the breathtaking beauty of the clear water, blue sky and red rocks.
Today we will go to the world's first national park - Yellowstone. Along the way, the endless grassland hills, the cattle and sheep all over the mountains and plains, the towering snow-capped mountains, and the endless rivers are all refreshing and refreshing.

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.
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.
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.
Today we will have a whole day to roam the Yellowstone Wonderland, where the colors are infinitely combined and amplified, and there is also a light mist that seems to be there or not. It is really beautiful every step of the way. Today we will see the charming Yellowstone Lake, the graceful fishing bridge, the loud volcanic crater, the ever-changing geysers, the Yellowstone Falls with thousands of horses and horses, the majestic Grand Canyon, the upper waterfall with thousands of horses galloping; the colorful Norris with steaming mist; various wild animals will also come into view, and friends will feast their eyes on it!
Itinerary:
Yellowstone National Park (7 hours, stop at West Thumb Geyser, Fishing Bridge, Mud Volcano, Hayden Valley, Artist Point, Upper Falls, Upper Terraces, Lower Terraces, Norris Geyser and other attractions. The attraction arrangement will be adjusted according to the actual situation of the day)

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.
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.
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.
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.
Norris Geyser Basin Yellowstone Norris Geyser Basin
Norris Geyser Basin is the hottest and most erratic series of geysers in Yellowstone Park. It has been dormant for a long time and only erupts once in a long time (the last eruption was in 2008). It once set a record of eruption height of 380 feet. The geysers in this area are also quite rich in color, ranging from crystal clear blue-green to soft milk-like blue-white.
Today we will enter Grand Teton National Park. Thousand-year-old glaciers cover the majestic Grand Teton Mountains, surrounded by blue skies and forests, reflecting on the virgin Jackson Lake at the foot of the mountain. The Snake River meanders through it, like a fairyland. Then come to the authentic western cowboy town - Jackson, which is also a world-famous resort. Don't miss Antler Park in the city center. In the afternoon, we headed to the Great Salt Lake, which was formed by the largest remnant of prehistoric Lake Bonneville. Since it is an inland lake, the lake water evaporates, resulting in a continuous increase in minerals and high salinity, making it a paradise for birds, Artemia and other animals.
Itinerary:
Grand Teton National Park (60 minutes) → Jackson → Antler Park (60 minutes) → Great Salt Lake (20 minutes) → Salt Lake City
Kind tips:
1. Yellowstone Park is located in the Rocky Mountains, with an altitude of about 7,000 feet; in mid-summer, the temperature in the morning in July and August is sometimes only 4°C, so please keep warm.
2. Complimentary farewell dinner: Korean buffet barbecue dinner.
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.
Great Salt Lake
The Great Salt Lake is the second largest saltwater lake in the world and the largest inland salt lake in North America. It is located in western Utah, USA, with the Rocky Mountains to the east and desert to the west. It consists of 10 islands. It is also a wildlife sanctuary, attracting millions of migratory birds every year. The salt content of the lake here is as high as 25%, second only to the Dead Sea. Only some algae that can tolerate high salinity can survive in the lake.
