First of all I would like to mention that Georgia’s Little Grand Canyon is one of the most colorful and wonderful places, a person could ever see in during the whole life. The formal name of this place is Providence Canyon, which is situated in southwest Georgia’s Coastal Plains region near the Alabama border. In 1800s poor farmers started growing plants and cut down the trees, as a result, their activity caused the soil erosion. Because of that and some natural factors such as rain and years of the flow of water and sand , helped to create an amazing, picturesque place which includes 43 different colors of sand and soil. It is a well-known fact, that in 1971, the state of Georgia decided to officially name it a state park instead. Providence Canyon State Park is considered one of the Seven Wonders of Georgia.

Activities and accommodation:
