THE GRAND CANYON
One of the most remarkable natural wonders of the world
is The Grand Canyon in Arizona. The Grand Canyon is
really impressive, probably the longest in the world at
more than 400 km; it's also the widest, from 6 to 59 km
at the widest part, and of course the deepest, at more than
1800 meters deep. It attracts visitors from all over the
world and every year is visited by more than 5 million
people.
Apart from casual sightseeing from the South Rim, rafting,
hiking, running and helicopter tours are especially
popular.
You need special permission if you want to camp there because it is a National Park. In some parts of the
park you need to apply 4 months before the date you want to camp. Before the Europeans discovered the
Canyon, it was inhabited by numerous tribes of native Americans. The Spanish were the first to explore
the Canyon in September 1540
