Hopi House

 

One of the highlights for me at the Grand Canyon was the Hopi House. I could have spent and entire afternoon exploring everything in this building, however we only had a day to explore the park. The artwork and crafts made by the Southwest Native Americans were beautiful and unique. Of course, I gravitated to the baskets first! I came away inspired by many of the patterns not only in the baskets that I saw, but the Navajo rugs and tapestries and the gorgeous pottery. The funny thing is that I didn't know that I missed the best view of this building until I got home and looked on the Grand Canyon website. If I would have only turned around, looked up and walked another five feet I would have seen the real beauty of the Hopi House! Oh well, another thing to save for the next visit. Enjoy!
