马蹄湾，是科罗拉多河在亚利桑那州境内的一截U形的河道，也是格兰峡谷其中的一小段，由于河湾环绕的巨岩形似马蹄，所以叫作了“马蹄湾”，也有人叫它科罗拉多河的大拐弯。红色的岩石，被蓝绿色的河水冲刷，景观非常震撼，让人慨叹大自然的鬼斧神工。景点比较原生态，基本没有人工开发的痕迹，但也造成了一点点不便，只能自驾车前往，下车后还要走二十分钟的红土细沙地，满脚都是沙子，不过野趣十足，值得一去。
During the Christmas holidays, our family drove around the Grand Canyon from Las Vegas, visiting several attractions and national parks along the way, and had an unforgettable Christmas in Las Vegas.
I spared a big circle just to see Horseshoe Bay and Antelope Canyon, and by the way, I saw Lake Powell, which at least completed something in my mind. After stepping into Arizona and moving forward in time by one hour, I began a journey that I will never forget. Unforgettable because there were surprises and touches along the way.
Las Vegas is relatively close to the Grand Canyon and Antelope Canyon, said to be close, in fact, the drive will take five or six hours to get to! But since we came to Las Vegas, it is still a bit regretful not to go, so I signed up for a two-day tour!
We actually took only 2 days to go from Las Vegas to Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bay and back to Las Vegas. When we arrived in Las Vegas, it was already evening, because we had been here before, so we didn’t watch the show and eat buffet, we strolled around Las Vegas Strip and went to have dinner.
Next trip, Peggy, the location of Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bay. The two sites are very close to each other, about 15 minutes drive. The only attraction that requires a fee is Antelope Canyon, because it belongs to the Indians, not the U.S. National Park, each person needs to join a group for 40 yuan (must be enrolled in a group to enter the Antelope Canyon, private cars are not allowed to enter da) according to their own online reservation time.
This day was the most anticipated of the whole trip, better than Yellowstone! Fortunately, both Horseshoe Bay and Antelope Canyon are located 10 minutes away from each other in the small town of Page.
During spring break, I had nothing to do, so I asked my school friends to go out and have fun. After considering the places I’ve been and the places they’ve been, I chose to go to the Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bay and Lake Powell from Las Vegas.
How to say it, our trip to the western United States may not be the same as most people’s route, Antelope Canyon I will certainly not miss, but time is very limited, so the route is not so perfect, it may seem to be more around. But these are not important. The important thing is that LK and I have not been together for such a long time since we separated in high school, and we are really happy.
美国作家约翰缪尔(John Muir)1890年游历了大峡谷后写道，“不管你走过多少路，看过多少名山大川，你都会觉得大峡谷仿佛只能存在于另一个世界，另一个星球。”此言不虚。
We are playing the latter way this time. Due to the short time and the rush of the schedule, we have to pay special attention to how to play. Basically a national park for a day, passing through Horseshoe Bend, Antelope Canyon, Arches National Park, Canyonlands National Park, and Bressler Canyon National Park.
