Antelope Canyon

Antelope Canyon is one of the most breathtaking and tranquil places on earth.
Floodwater carved the canyons from the Navajo sandstone over the course of countless millenniums.
These slot canyons are majestic and narrow passages, just enough space for a small group to walk the sandy floor.

It is a place of the Navajo people. The Navajo name for Upper Antelope Canyon is Tse' bighanilini, which means
"the place where water runs through rocks."

We show our respect for this place and honour it by sharing these images with you,
as the Navajo people were kind enough to share it and some its music and stories with us.
