Amangiri

#losangeles Really cool resort in the middle of nowhere. The staff uniforms are all Patagonia and it made me feel like I should go hiking or do something adventurous, but it’s a dessert and hot as hell even in September. I can’t imagine being there in the middle of summer. There’s not much to do there but the spas are very unique and the pool too. There’s a cave you have to climb up for events or dinners and the premium rooms are actually tents but they’re more like houses with a canvas cover. Still pretty cool and worth visiting for 2-3 days. Not sure if I can recommend paying the outrages rates for the experience though.overall ok

The loneliest Aman in the world! The kingdom in the Gobi Desert!

Known as the loneliest Aman in the world. It is hidden in the magnificent canyons of the southwestern United States, offering both adrenaline-pumping adventures and tranquil holiday destinations. 【Aman Ridge】At a glance, it is full of rich canyon landscapes and the desolate desert style. The magical combination of nature and modern architecture, with its eye-catching location and astonishing luxury, Aman Ridge has become one of the most hidden and desired holiday destinations in the world! Aman Ridge room types: Desert View Suite/Mesa View Suite/Mesa Pool Suite/Desert Pool Suite/Orchard Suite/One Bedroom Pavilion/Two Bedroom Pavilion/One Bedroom Sunset Pavilion/Aman Ridge Suite! Here are traces of human life 10,000 years ago, and the brilliant scenery of sandstone cliffs, the vast beauty of nature and rich cultural heritage shine each other. The hotel is integrated into the original red rock mountains, over 900 acres of vast and majestic Colorado Plateau, the original wild west. The main body of the hotel is located next to the low opening of the sandstone strata, and it looks like an ancient human settlement from a distance. Each room can appreciate the original and pure natural beauty of the surrounding mesas, and the fascinating changes of natural light throughout the day. Aman Spa spans 2300 square meters in the desert plain, silently relying on the American canyon area under its feet, and peacefully guarding each other. In addition to the characteristic therapies and wellness journeys of Aman Spa, the therapists at Aman Ridge also provide care programs based on the four elements of earth, wind, fire, and water, guided by Navajo healing traditions.

Amangiri, the loneliest hotel in the world, surrounded by the vast walls of the desert.

Actually not lonely at all haha, the hotel staff is abundant and enthusiastic. Unique and lonely is its peculiar geographical location. In the dreamy rock desert of Utah, USA, within a radius of 20 miles, everything belongs to the most beautiful Aman in the world. The hotel was developed in 2005, and all buildings are integrated with desert rocks, natural and simple yet exquisite. Transportation: If you want to go directly to the hotel after getting off the plane, it is best to fly to the small town of Paige where there will be a special car to pick you up, which is also the easiest way. Room type: Terrace Suite with views of the desert and mesa, including an outdoor balcony. Although Amangiri is large in size, there are only 34 suites, so it is recommended to book in advance during holidays. Food: Hotel food and drinks are all-inclusive. (Food except for alcohol) The ingredients for the food provided during breakfast, lunch, dinner, and all day are also air-flown, but the taste of the dishes is heavily influenced by Thai cuisine! Many of them are spicy and sour, which is a bit confusing, but I still ate a lot. Feature: Over 2000 square meters of spa and outdoor swimming pool. You can get close to appreciate the rocks from one billion years ago transformed into a circular swimming pool (Figure 3). The hotel offers activities such as hiking and horseback riding that can be booked in advance. The beauty is indescribable, as if it merges with nature and is surrounded by the vast Gobi and countless stars, falling asleep.

Utah is home to some of the most pristine landscapes on the planet. There is something new around every corner. One of these such places is the Coral Pink Sand Dunes. They are a massive stretch of dunes created from erosion of the surrounding sandstone. The park was established in 1963 and has been a great p[lace to enjoy the outdoors since then. You are usually able to see the “pink” hue on the dunes late in the day. They are best seen around sunset or sunrise, when the sunlight illuminates the sand perfectly. #utah #awesomepic #dunes #photographyguide

Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park in Utah, USA, where you can play ATVs in the desert and climb into the mountains to see the red walls of the park. This is one of Utah's typical landscapes. The color is very good in the sun.

Incredible moments cruising on Lake Powell

#mytripvlog The scene was just too beautiful to be true! It just happened when our boat was cruising into the lake. I could not take my eyes off the reflections. It’s an incredible golden hour at the evening. The boat was in a lower position of the lake, where we could see up to slot canyons, which Lake Power is famous. Getting there: Navajo Nation Reservation, 537 Marina Pkwy, Page, AZ 86040, Antelope Point Marina down the road from Lower Antelope Canyon on Navajo Route 22 attraction: Antelope Slot Canyon, Antelope Canyon

Incredibly moments cruising on Lake Powell

#MyTripVlog Getting there: Navajo Nation Reservation, 537 Marina Pkwy, Page, AZ 86040, Antelope Point Marina down the road from Lower Antelope Canyon on Navajo Route 22 attraction: Antelope Slot Canyon, Antelope Canyon That was a fantastic breathtaking experience when we were cursing into Lake Powell in late Autumn. The afternoon boat was in a lower position of the lake, where we could see up to slot canyons, which Lake Power is famous. The unique close looks to the narrow, colorful, and sculpted geology in golden hours, and I was unsure if I were in a Xanadu.

📍My favorite hikes in Zion NP, Utah

Can you spot the chipmunk? 😍🐿 🏜 Canyon overlook trail - takes less than an hour to get there but the views at the top are so beautiful overlooking the main Zion canyon 🏜 Observation point via East Mesa trailhead. This is a “cheat” option to get to this view point in Zion. Much easier than the main trail which would take about 5 hours 🏜 Emerald pools trail. Pretty easy but the views are nice and it leads to natural ponds 🏜 The watchman Trail is my favorite sunset hike 🏜 Angels landing. This hike was horrible, especially in hot summer weather. I don’t think I would ever want to do this one again but it’s very popular and was on my bucket list
