03. (Mon, 22 Sep) Las Vegas – Grand Canyon – Hoover Dam – Las Vegas

From Las Vegas, I will be heading to Grand Canyon National Park. Stop at the rim of lookout points of the Grand Canyon; witness the world’s most spectacular illustration of erosion with plunging gorge over a mile deep, the ultimate in silent grandeur and beauty.

  

From Grand Canyon, proceed to Hoover Dam. The dam was constructed in 1931 and completed in 1935, it raised 736ft above the Colorado River, and impound Lake Mead which happen to be one of the largest man- made lakes in the western hemisphere.

 

After that, back to Las Vegas to hotel and likely visit their casinos :D
