The view from my hotel in Grand Canyon Village! Grand Canyon National Park Arizona

            Grand Canyon Village sits on a precipice at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.  The village is a hub of activity for tourists including many hotels, shops and restaurants. A few hotels are located directly at the edge of the canyon, 30 to 50 feet (9 to 15 m) from the drop off, providing unbelievable views right from your hotel window!
  
For more than a century, tourists from all over the world have visited the Grand Canyon to experience its awe-inspiring vistas. It was designated a protected area in 1893 and became a national park in February 1919. Its size is hard to comprehend; a mile deep, 277 miles long and 18 miles wide, for a total of 1,904 square miles. The Grand Canyon was carved over a period of 6 million years and is one of the most studied landscapes in the world.
