Summary

Description
English: The location of multiple scenic rock formations, Monument Valley straddles the border of Arizona and Utah in the southwestern United States, and is located within the Navajo Nation. The valley sits atop the Colorado Plateau and is characterized by sandstone buttes, pinnacles, and mesas, which reach heights of up to 1,000 feet (300 meters) above the surrounding valley floor, and is considered sacred by the indigenous Navajo people. The valley has, most famously, been utilized as a backdrop for popular media, especially western films from the mid-20th Century.
