Scenic spot introduction:

The red, orange and white rocks within form a unique natural landscape, so it is It is known as the palace of natural stone figurines. Bryce Canyon National Park is 50 miles (80 kilometers) northeast of Zion National Park, located on the Colorado Plateau and across the southeastern side of the Ponsagunter Plateau.Attractions distribution:
