#freehotelstay

Amangiri, the loneliest hotel in the world, surrounded by the vast walls of the desert.

Actually not lonely at all haha, the hotel staff is abundant and enthusiastic. Unique and lonely is its peculiar geographical location. In the dreamy rock desert of Utah, USA, within a radius of 20 miles, everything belongs to the most beautiful Aman in the world. The hotel was developed in 2005, and all buildings are integrated with desert rocks, natural and simple yet exquisite. Transportation: If you want to go directly to the hotel after getting off the plane, it is best to fly to the small town of Paige where there will be a special car to pick you up, which is also the easiest way. Room type: Terrace Suite with views of the desert and mesa, including an outdoor balcony. Although Amangiri is large in size, there are only 34 suites, so it is recommended to book in advance during holidays. Food: Hotel food and drinks are all-inclusive. (Food except for alcohol) The ingredients for the food provided during breakfast, lunch, dinner, and all day are also air-flown, but the taste of the dishes is heavily influenced by Thai cuisine! Many of them are spicy and sour, which is a bit confusing, but I still ate a lot. Feature: Over 2000 square meters of spa and outdoor swimming pool. You can get close to appreciate the rocks from one billion years ago transformed into a circular swimming pool (Figure 3). The hotel offers activities such as hiking and horseback riding that can be booked in advance. The beauty is indescribable, as if it merges with nature and is surrounded by the vast Gobi and countless stars, falling asleep.

Bryce Canyon National Park is about an hour's drive from Zion National Park. For self-driving travelers who have already arrived in Zion, this road is completely lightweight. In contrast, the Bryce Canyon Park is small in size and is simply a geological bonsai filled with colorful sandstone. The park management party arranged a shuttle bus to the scenic spots in the small town outside the canyon. The trails in the park are generally 5-6 kilometers away. Arrange a day to take a walk in the colored sand rock forest. Look at the sunset, you can count the completion of the punch. From personal experience, the sunrise here can be ignored.

Like the Net Red Park in Antelope Valley, the coral pink sand dunes state park in Kanab, Utah, USA, hh/Canabu Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, Utah, just found the net red punching card next to the sand dunes. The feeling is that the red canyons are flowing in the canyon, and the sun is shining in the canyon. When the ATV in the sand dunes rides in the vast pink sand dunes, don't miss the net red punch card!

On both sides of the "Death Valley" canyon, the cliff is a cliff, the terrain is very sinister. It is also the hottest and driest area in North America. It doesn't rain all the year round. Every time there is heavy rain, the hot place will easily rush into the mud, and there is also the "dead crater." It is said that the notoriety of "Death Valley" was not proclaimed until 150 years ago. In the 19th century, a gold rushing team to Jinshan copied shortcuts across the valley.

The viewing platform is not far from the visitor center, and the road will also see the deer who are not afraid of human freedom. The viewing platform has a straight road to the bottom of the valley and is well recognizable. In fact, it is a bit like Cappadocia in Turkey. At sunset, the golden glory of the summit is not to be missed!

After thousands of years of weathering, it has formed a unique natural wonder. Inside the red, orange and white rocks, as if the natural terracotta warriors emerged from the ground, resolutely stood like a group of mountains and seas, like the loneliness of the group. The various pillars of different depths and magnificent rock pillars can be called the magic of nature, and the beauty is breathtaking!

For Bryce, I really don't feel it... Although a large piece of bamboo shoot-like stone pillars are quietly standing between the heavens and the earth, there are forests and stone forests in Yunnan... and this park, If you really want to go shopping, you have to walk on foot~ Anyway, I think this park is very difficult to shoot~ Bryce Canyon National Park is a national park in southwestern Utah.
