the Grand Canyon was formed by water errosion, the Great Rift Valley was caused by tectonic plate movement (moving apart)
The Great Rift Valley is wider and shallower compared to the Grand Canyon. The Great Rift Valley is an extensive trench system stretching over 6,000 kilometers in Africa, while the Grand Canyon is narrower but much deeper, with depths reaching over a mile in some places.
No, the Great Rift Valley is not a river. It is a geographical trench system extending approximately 6,000 kilometers from Lebanon to Mozambique, known for its diverse ecosystems, unique landscapes, and geological significance. Rivers do flow through certain parts of the Great Rift Valley, such as the Nile in East Africa.
The Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon (or Tsangpo Canyon), along the Yarlung Tsangpo River in Tibet, is regarded by some as the deepest canyon in the world at 5,500 m (18,000 ft). It is slightly longer than the Grand Canyon in the United States.
The Colorado Plateau is the largest plateau in the United States. It covers parts of Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico and is known for its stunning landscapes, including the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley.
The Grand Canyon was primarily formed by water erosion. The Colorado River flowing through the region carved out the canyon over millions of years, exposing layers of rock and creating the breathtaking landscape we see today. Though wind erosion has also played a role in shaping the canyon, water erosion was the main force behind its formation.

The Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon in Tibet is considered the deepest canyon in the world. It is about 17,000 to 21,000 feet deep and stretches for about 150 miles.
Great or not, it is certainly grand.
It is a great canyon, and a great whitewater site, but the Grand Canyon is a spectacular giant by comparison.
The Great Rift Valley is wider and shallower compared to the Grand Canyon. The Great Rift Valley is an extensive trench system stretching over 6,000 kilometers in Africa, while the Grand Canyon is narrower but much deeper, with depths reaching over a mile in some places.
There are great canyons elsewhere in the world, but the only Grand Canyon is in Arizona.
It's not. They are both valleys but were formed by distinctly different geological processes. They are alike you just gave the ans. they're both valleys....
Its a collection of rivers
I believe you mean the Grand Canyon, which is located in Arizona.
Yes, there are thousands of pictures of the Grand Canyon at libraries and on a great many internet sites.
I think youre talking about the Grand Canyon and it is in A.Z.
The world's longest canyon belongs to China and is called the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon.The Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon is among the longest and deepest canyons in the world of TIBET. Chinese government illegially occupated Tibet, so Yarlung Tsangpo is in Tibet which is occupated by Chinese official.
