Travel to Bryce Canyon National Park (approximately 2.15 hours) in Utah, USA. The Grand Canyon isn't the only natural wonder created by this natural phenomenon. Six million years ago, this area was underwater. As the earth's crust shifted, the plateau was lifted and severely eroded, creating numerous columns of earth and rock in the canyon, reaching heights of 2,800 meters above sea level. Since it's located at the end of the Grand Canyon, it was named Bryce Canyon. Bryce Canyon's signature feature is its rows of sharp, pointed rock formations, known as hoodoos, which form a series of bizarre shapes. Native American legends claim these columns were created by cursed humans who turned them to stone. Bryce Canyon is composed of alternating sandstone and shale. From the Cretaceous to the early Cenozoic, it deposited in a lacustrine environment that gradually became shallower over millions of years. This allowed river erosion to begin, along with land uplift during the formation of the Rocky Mountains (~70-50 million years ago). Another crustal uplift followed, creating the Colorado Plateau about 16 million years ago. This uplift caused the rocks to begin to fracture vertically, making them more susceptible to erosion, eventually forming the spectacular columnar formations of today. The reddish-brown, pink, and red colors are derived from the iron-rich mineral hematite. The yellow color comes from limonite, while the purple color comes from pyrolusite. You're free to take photos of Bryce Canyon at your leisure.
Lunch at a local restaurant.
In the afternoon, we'll travel to Antelope Canyon (approximately 3 hours). This mysterious canyon was created by the rapid erosion of Navajo Sandstone, which was eroded by the rapid flow of water, combined with the force of wind and rainstorms throughout the seasons.

Many of these unusually shaped rock columns are known as "masas," which are flat-topped columns, or "mesas."
