2. Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona
When talking about amazing national parks in America, one would commit a sin by not mentioning the mother of all national parks – Grand Canyon. Chances are you’ve seen pictures upon pictures of this incredible feat of nature created by the Colorado River.
However, literally nothing can prepare you for standing on its edge and looking down on the river itself, while its intense beauty, rivaled only by its vastness, imposes itself onto your field of vision. Truly one of the must-do experiences in a lifetime, the Grand Canyon National Park’s description would never ever be enough to depict its majesty, which is why anything other than seeing it firsthand would be sacrilege.
