7. Las Vegas Desert

The Las Vegas Desert actually refers to the Mojave Desert where Las Vegas is located. It is a vast desert area covering several states in the southwestern United States. The Mojave Desert is famous for its unique landforms and extreme climatic conditions, with a dry climate, sparse vegetation and rich geological landscapes.

The Mojave Desert has a diverse landscape that includes vast sand dunes, dry lake beds, rugged mountains and volcanic remains. The desert region surrounding downtown Las Vegas is often seen by tourists as an ideal place for exploration and adventure. Just a short drive from Las Vegas, Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is known for its spectacular red sandstone formations and abundant outdoor activities such as hiking, rock climbing and wildlife viewing.

The Las Vegas desert also has many amazing natural wonders, such as cacti and wildflowers in the desert, which turn into a colorful sea of ​​flowers when there is enough rain in the spring. In addition, the night sky in the desert is particularly bright because it is far away from urban light pollution, making it an ideal place for stargazing enthusiasts.

The Grand Canyon Skywalk is a famous viewing facility located in the West Grand Canyon of Arizona, United States, suspended above the Colorado River on the west rim of the Grand Canyon.
