Cañon del Sumidero


Through this spectacular canyon the River Grijalva runs beneath cliffs that in places reach almost 1500m in height.

What a gorgeous place! I lived in San Miguel de Allende in Mexico for a year and there is so much beauty to be seen there! Your photos are superb as always! Hope your week is going well! Enjoy! And thanks as always for your visit/comments! They're always appreciated!

Incredible!! It reminds me a bit of one place up on Kariba. I would love to go downriver on a boat there.

Gorgeous. I once took a trip to Guaymas off Baja - we saw cliffs such as these...I'll never forget them!
