Bryce Canyon
 If one wonders how the bottoms of the giant
oceans look like, he/she should visit Utah lands. 10 million
years ago entire state of Utah was in water (this region was a
part of earths oceanic system). People have been in Colorado
plateau region for about 12,000 years. In 1923 Bryce Canyon
was declared as National Monument by president Warren G.
Harding. In 1928 the US Congress made it a national park. Each
year about 1.7 million people visit the Bryce Canyon National
Park. Bryce Canyon National Park is open all year. Panguitch
(big fish in one native Indian language and water or fish in
other) was inhabited by Paiute Indians who were displaced by
emissaries of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
(called Mormons). Panguitch is the only town with all
facilities and amenities (Hospital, Post Office, Grocery
store, about 6 restaurants to choose from, several boutiques,
Gas stations, Auto repair shops, etc.). Amazing carvings of
Taj Mahal of India and building of pyramids are the marvels of
human hands but Bryce Canyon is the carving and painting of
nature. Bryce Canyon means nature as a carver and painter
(millions of years old paint is not fading but getting
brighter).
