Grand Canyon National ParkCreated June 23, 2001 | |

This might be the most famous national park among all. I have never
seen so many Taiwanese tourists in this whole trip until we reached
Grand Canyon. It was also the Memorial Day that day, so there were
really a lot people. In fact, it is the only place in the Southwest
reminding me of New York...
Maybe due to its popularity, the park admission is twice as expensive than the other parks we visited (while service in the restaurants is twice as bad). Though this is my third time visiting the Park (I visted here in 1984 and 1992), I was still stunned by its beauty. It is also the first time I had chance to stay in the Park more than 5 hours. Still, we didn't have enough time. We didn't stay until sunset to view the ever-changing colors of the canyon walls. We didn't have time to walk to the valley bottom to touch the water of Colorado River. We didn't have chance to ride donkeys....However, there can always the fourth time, I guess. | |
