Zion National Park preserves 229 square miles of red rock landscape that’s so stunning it looks surreal.

To celebrate the National Park Service's 100th anniversary this August, USA TODAY will be highlighting one national park per week in a countdown to the centennial on August 25th. From the scenic geological wonders of Arches National Park and the land of giants in central California with Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks, we now turn to the canyons and Narrows of Zion National Park. Take a virtual trip through the park in video and photos, then read up on tips for visiting.
