Wonderful Grand Canyon

The Grand Canyon, one of the wonders of the world, has been created by Colorado River cutting through rock for two billion years. The canyon is 446 km long, from 6 to 24 kilometers wide and more than a mile deep.

South Rim

The South Rim is the most famous part of the Grand Canyon, and the busiest too. It is the place you may have seen already in National Geographic.
When you enter the park you get a free copy of the park Guide, with a lot of informations, announcements about activities.
Mather Point is the most popular viewpoint on the South Rim as it is closest to the entrance. The majority of visitors including me first gaze over the Grand Canyon here, although other lookout point have probably better views for photos.

    I wanted to go to the South Rim but we got a deal to the West Rim. I love the picture on the intro page :)
