The Canyon, which is about 10 miles wide, 277 miles long, and 1 mile deep, is a sight to behold.
The mighty Colorado River has been expanding the Grand Canyon for the last 6 million years! Therefore it is no wonder that people from all over the world travel to catch a glimpse of the red and orange grandeur of the Canyon.
Although the world is generally a safe place, and strangers are often more kind and well-meaning than evil, there are locations where travelers typically shouldn’t venture, places ravaged by wars, terrorism, civil unrest, or violent crime.
