It is a 270-degree turn of the Colorado River near the town of Page, which is very suitable for photography, and you have seen his photos in many places.
Deep in the vast Arizona desert, there is a natural wonder, it is like the brush of time, after millions of years of sculpting to show such a stunning gesture, it is Horseshoe Bend.
When you stand on the edge of the cliff overlooking the winding Colorado River, you feel a sense of grandeur and serenity. The river, emerald clear, rounded the red-rock landscape in a perfect horseshoe curve.
The next day at about 11 o 'clock to take a close look at the antelope Valley cruise, this strong push, there is a driver license can rent a yacht, their own yacht into the canyon experience full, many people price is also very cost-effective, opened two hours only more than 200.
📍 is located at the Glen Canyon Dam Overlook
Into the Antelope Valley, we went to the Lower Antelope Canyon at three in the afternoon. We stuffed the guide with some tips, but we still walked very fast and did not have time to take pictures. It is recommended that uu who want to take pictures can walk in the front of the team and remember to make an appointment in advance.
I thought it was to climb the mountains, who knows the flat road, suddenly appeared in front of me. Never seen such a unique landscape, is sinking into the canyon, you have to look down to get a beautiful view of Horseshoe Bay. Without any protective measures, be sure to pay attention to your feet, the road is slippery in rainy days, the wind is strong, do not get too close. I crawled on my hands and knees, it was really scary, but the view was really beautiful.

1️⃣ From the parking lot to the observation spot, it is a 15-20 minute walk path, except for some shrubs, there is basically no vegetation around, so occasionally there will be wind sand, and there is no shade, so prepare in advance.
2️⃣ There is a small section of the edge of the cliff installed guardrail, but most of them are without guardrail, and the ground is mostly some strange shaped boulders with fine sand attached to the surface, personally feel the edge of the cliff is very dangerous, so you must pay attention to safety when trying to reach the edge! Especially there are many bold foreigners will sit on the edge of the cliff to take photos, must be careful to imitate!
3️⃣ (optional) Since most people visit Horseshoe Bay after visiting the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park, it is recommended to take Highway 64 from the East Entrance Station of the Grand Canyon if you are driving. On the way, there are many free viewing spots for observing geological structures, which are basically all kinds of flat canyons, most of which are distributed on either side of the road. Plenty of time to pay attention to the scenic spots on the way, or very shocking.
After finishing Antelope Valley to Horseshoe Bay, it only takes less than 20min to drive, the summer sunshine is long, so there is no need to worry about missing the sunset, at five o 'clock to the sun is still high, people who are afraid of heights can take pictures away from the cliff.
After these two places, we'll drive to the Grand Canyon.
