The Grand Canyon Skywalk is a popular tourist attraction
that is along the Colorado River just on the edge of the Grand Canyon located
in This attraction just opened in early 2007 and
is available to tourists that purchase a package for around $75. The skywalk is constructed in a horseshoe
shaped ledge. It’s about 4,000 feet
above the canyon which is higher than any of the world’s largest buildings!
One of the other attractions to the Grand
Canyon is the Railway which is much more older than the Grand
Canyon Skywalk. This railway was first
run in 1901 with a group of passengers that traveled 64 miles. The railway carries about 240,000 passengers
per year in today’s statistics which amounts to hundreds per day. It’s a great way to see much of the if you don’t feel like taking a hike or walk
on your own.
The temperature in the canyon is much like the desert temperature
compared to cities in It can reach up to 100 degrees Fahrenheit in
the summer months and below zero at night during the winter months. The
Grand Canyon Skywalk is a great way to take advantage of some of the best views
the canyon has to offer. It’s a new
attraction that many people are taking advantage of. The only downside is that its very expensive
to get up there although you are offered other items as a package deal.
