The different colors of the Grand Canyon indicate where the water levels have recently been. The lighter the color, the more recent water levels have been.
-------------------------
The Different colors of the Grand canyon are due to the different Strata of rocks that been exposed during the 5 to 6 million year history of the Grand Canyon. Some Layers are Granite, some are schist, Some are Limestone.
Pure sandstone is light yellow. Thus, recent sandstone layers in the GC have that color. However, sandstone is also very porous. When water seeps into those layers and meets iron, the result is rust. The more rust, the darker the orange or red in that standstone layer.
Note that limestone is less porous, and thus remains white over millions of years.
Thus, in the GC you'll see white, yellow, orange, and red layers.
There are many layers of different types of rock there. Not all rocks are brown and gray, different kinds can be a wide array of colors like you see in the Grand Canyon.

The Great Wall of China is the only Wonder of the Seven that can be seen from space with the naked eye, though it is difficult to see with the unaided eye. Other wonders like the Pyramids of Giza are impossible to see from space without binoculars or a telescope.

The Great Wall of China is manmade and began during the Qin Dynasty, under Shi Huangdi, the "first emperor." It was built UP ___ The Grand Canyon was completely natural and occured over thousands of years. It is an example of erosion. It goes DOWN
The Redwall limestone exposed in the Grand Canyon is a sedimentary formation of the Carboniferous Period.
The Skywalk extends 66 feet beyond the Grand Canyons rim.
Make a layered cake, with each layer representing a layer of the canyon. pick different kinds of cake that look like shale, sandstone, limestone, etc.
No. The Great Wall of China was made by men, therefore it is not a natural feature. The Grand Canyon was carved by the natural force of water, and is therefore a natural feature.
