Bryce Amphitheater at sunrise - Bryce Canyon National Park

It would be hard to imagine that such a mind-boggling, alien, exotic, singularly beautiful place can exist on earth. Delicate spires, towering ramparts, majestic temples, mythical castles are some of the sights that will come to your mind when you visit Bryce. Even more amazing is the knowledge that these fantastic sculptures were shaped by none other than the most primitive force of nature and the relentless march of time. This remarkable landscape, just a few hours' drive away from the big city, will transport your imagination to a place far beyond this world.

Bryce hoodoo formation

Cluster of hoodoos. The scenery is so amazing it numbs the senses.

Bryce canyon

The rock formation resembles a crouching lion. If you look closely you can see the trail leading diagonally to the base of the rock.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Out of this world landscape; proximity to large cities
Cons:Pity Bryce isn't larger
In a nutshell:Pictures do not do it justice
