This little gem of a national monument is tucked away in Northern Arizona. It is unique in that it is operated by both the National Park Service and the Navajo Tribal Trust. The Navajo consider the canyon a very holy place.

The Navajo still live in the canyon and access to the canyon is restricted to tours accompanied by a park ranger or Navajo guide (the only exception is the trail to the White House Ruins).

A trip to Canyon de Chelly is rewarding not only for great photographs, but for the spirit.

Lovely, Sam.  Fantastic clarity and such great colours!

Someday I'd like to be down in that part of the world to see your views.

These are great photos and thanks for the added information.  I always like it when people tell  more about the photo and the place it was taken.
