Monument Valley in Utah is said to be one of the most photographed places on earth. The valley is host to towering sandstone rock formations that have been sculpted over time and soar 400 to 1,000 feet above the valley floor. Combined with the surrounding mesas, buttes, and desert environment, it truly is one of the natural wonders of the world.
Set aside by the Navajo Tribal Council in 1958, the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park covers almost 92,000 acres in northern Arizona and southern Utah and lies within the Navajo Nation reservation.
