the Southwest landscape consistently defies belief as it offers a glorious panoply of cliffs and canyons, buttes and mesas, carved from rocks of every imaginable color, and enriched here by shimmering aspens and cottonwoods, there by cactuses and agaves .

The southwest part of America is probably one of the most sought out destinations because if its unique and stunning desert scenery that makes everyone understand the true beauty of nature. Here are some of the best places to visit in Southwest, USA.

The Durango And Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. Taking a steam train up to the old Colorado mining town of Silverton is the perfect way to spend and experience a day in the Rocky mountains. The trains run between May and October, making up to three daily back and forth trips along a spectacular route through the mountains that parallels the gorgeous San Juan Skyway.

Torroweap Overlook. According to Rough Guides, this vast location on a rocky hilltop is a unique Grand Canyon overlook with an immediate visceral impact. The view may lack the usual buttes and pyramids or labyrinthine spurs and mesas, but tiptoe to the southern edge of the parking lot, and the ground suddenly drops 3000ft from your feet.

Monument Valley. This classic old time wild west landscape of stark sandstone buttes and forbidding pinnacles of rock, poking from an limitless expanse of drifting red sands, has become a must see image in real life. For weather, Monument Valley experiences a desert climate with cold winters and hot summers. While the summers may be hot, the heat is tempered by region's high altitude.

Grand Canyon. the Grand Canyon is known for its visually overwhelming size and its intricate and colorful landscape. Geologically, it is significant because of the thick sequence of ancient rocks that are well preserved and exposed in the walls of the canyon. These rock layers record much of the early geologic history of the North American continent. The Grand Canyon is also one of the seven natural wonders of the world.

Horseshoe Canyon. Horseshoe Canyon is home to the most extraordinary rock formations in North America. No one now knows the meaning of the mysterious, haunting figures that line the sandstone walls of the Great Gallery and they're only accessible via a long desert hike. Though it might be exhausting and tiring at the same time, its worth it. For more about the best of America stay tuned to Travelers Today.
