The Grand Canyon is easily one of the most distinguishable landmarks in the United States; stretching 277 miles through the Arizona desert, the colorful canyon is a true natural wonder that offers plenty of recreation activities. Grand Canyon is divided into three areas: the South Rim, the North Rim, and the West Rim.

Most visitors head to the well-developed South Rim, which is open all year round and offers a number of restaurant and lodging options.

The West Rim is home to the glass-bottomed Skywalk, while the wild and remote North Rim is perfect for anyone wanting to spend some time relaxing away from the crowds.
