Canyonlands National Park is located in southeastern Utah, United States, at the confluence of the Green and Colorado Rivers. The park is a sandstone tower and canyon formed by years of river erosion, wind, frost, rain and snow. It has become one of the world's famous erosion areas, and is known for its sinister peaks and rugged rocks. It was officially built as a park in 1964, covering an area of 1,366 square kilometers. The park is divided into three parts, the north, the entrance near the town of Moab is called Islandinthesky, the south is called Needles, and the west is called Maze. Canyonlands National Park covers a vast area, and the landscape is vast and boundless. In the park, there are terraces, canyons and other landscapes named according to their shapes, colors and various characteristics, such as the Golden Ladder, Elephant Gorge, Tianxian Island, Doll Stone, Tapestry Stone, Horseshoe Valley, as well as spectacular terraces, stone formations, etc. There are no roads here, and the three major scenic spots in the park are independent.
