🏜️USA🇺🇸 Arizona, Grand Canyon

🔶The Grand Canyon is the most famous and one of the oldest, most popular and spectacular national parks in the USA. It is visited annually by over 6 million people, and in this indicator it is second only to the Great Smoky Mountains Nature Park, located in the densely populated eastern part of the country.

🔶On the territory of the Grand Canyon there is, perhaps, the most famous natural attraction of the country — the legendary Grand Canyon of the Colorado River, whose length reaches 446 km, average width — 16 km, and depth — up to 1600 m.

✔️The area of the Grand Canyon Park is 4926.66 sq. km
✔️The foundation of the National Park — 1919
✔️Inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage List — 1979

🔶There are canyons longer, wider and deeper on the planet, but nowhere are there so many open historical sections of the Earth preserved in almost perfect condition.
