Summary
[edit]DescriptionGrand Canyon National Park- Desert View Point and Watchtower.jpg |
English: From Desert View… aptly named because of the views to the east of the Painted Desert…you can see the Colorado River make a big bend and continue to the west, the North Rim more than 10 miles away, and a panoramic view for well over 100 miles on a clear day.
The Desert View Watchtower is an unusual stone tower designed in 1932 by architect Mary Colter, in the style of Ancestral Puebloan towers. You can Climb 85 steps for a 360° view from observation deck 70 ft (21 m) above ground level. Also, study wall murals by Hopi Artist Fred Kabotie. Watch a video to learn more: www.nps.gov/media/video/view.htm?id=6AF7C29B-155D-451F-67... [Image description: a 360 panoramic view of Grand Canyon as seen from the observation deck atop of the Kiva Room of the Desert View Watchtower. The stone tower is visible on one side, and we can look down on sightseers viewing the canyon from various levels. The Colorado River is seen in the distance.) |
