Hoover Dam & The Grand Canyon

After the excitement of Las Vegas, we started very early in the morning to explore two national treasures: The Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon. Since the dam is located on both the state of Nevada and Arizona, we parked on the Arizona Side will be included in the entry.
First, the dam is immense. It is concrete and built to last. Although its color is dull, and faded and stained, there is certainly something beautiful on the design and architecture. You can see some retro-esque style benchmarks in the middle of the concrete. You really have to see it to appreciate it fully …
But speaking to see and really appreciate it, the dam does not even come close to the beautiful and breathtaking and inspiring fear to ask the Grand Canyon. We arrived just before sunset, and could not have planned it better. Fading rays of the sun gave a new vibrancy and life in the canyon walls except for a few moments. Pepper with snow and ice, the violent beauty of the landscape is like nothing else in the world. Just think of the time and all time created, it is absolutely inconceivable.
This is quite a place, you MUST see it before your death
