Watching sunrise over Bryce Canyon Amphitheatre and see the thousands of hoodoos light up with the first rays of sun is probably one of the most beautiful sights that you can admire in the South-West of the United States… Have a look at my pictures of Bryce Canyon and its neighbours Red Canyon and Kodachrome Basin!

Just before reaching Bryce Canyon if you’re coming from the West, Red Canyon is a good introduction to the wonders that await you in the Bryce Amphitheater
