点评:After visiting Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse the day before, it took us almost 2 hrs to get to this amazing site from Rapid City.
You see it miles before you reach it - a truly spectacular site rising from the flat Wyoming plains.
Unfortunately, it was very busy that sunny September day and it took us hour and a half to enter the park, drive to the parking lot and find a free space. However at no time we thought giving up.
Entry fee is 25$ per vehicle, but included in America the Beautiful pass I highly recommend.
Devils tower is the first US National Monument, formed millions years ago from volcanic origin, and is Native Indian's sacred place. According to their tradition you need to walk around it in clockwise direction. There're two paths - shorter paved we did and longer unpaved. It took us around an hour to hike around it, taking many photos from different angles.
翻译:前一天游览了拉什莫尔山和疯马纪念碑之后,我们花了将近两个小时才从拉皮德城到达这个令人惊叹的景点。
在到达之前几英里,你就能看到它——这座壮丽的景观从怀俄明州平坦的平原上拔地而起。
可惜的是,那天阳光明媚的九月,游客众多,我们花了整整一个半小时才进入公园,开车到停车场,找到一个空位。不过,我们从未想过放弃。
门票是每辆车25美元,但包含在“美国美丽通行证”(America the Beautiful Pass)中,我强烈推荐。
魔鬼塔是美国第一个国家纪念碑,形成于数百万年前的火山时期,是印第安人的圣地。根据他们的传统,你需要顺时针方向绕塔一周。有两条路——我们走的是较短的铺砌路,另一条是较长的土路。我们花了大约一个小时绕塔徒步,从不同的角度拍了很多照片。
