Monument Valley

Monument Valley really gives you a sense of space. It's in the upper northeast corner of Arizona on the border with Utah - at least a 2 hour drive from anywhere.

When you arrive, the view is incredibly vast. A 180-degree panorama of massive buttes reaching up from the valley floor, it's almost endless. You have to just stop and enjoy the perspective.
