Monument Valley is a place that holds a certain allure
to people worldwide. A sacred place to the Navajo,
who still inhabit the valley today, the valley offers
a certain peacefulness; a quiet power that most people
can't, or don't wish to put into words.
The valley is also an iconic setting for myriad Westerns,
and other films. Lovers of John Wayne classics flock
here to step onto the set, so to speak.
Finally, Monument Valley is a photographer's Mecca.
Changing subtlely with the movement of the sun, changing
seasons and varied angles, the monuments are at once
timeless and mercurial.
