Canyons are truly nature's grand wonders. These giant paths are carved over millions of years by the flow of rivers and wind. This process, called erosion, slowly strips away rock to reveal beautiful colors and history hidden deep underground.

While some canyons are famous for their width, others are known for their incredible depth, reaching miles into the earth’s crust. From snowy Himalayan peaks to tropical forests, these landmarks tell the story of our planet’s changing surface.

In this gallery, we take a look at the 15 deepest canyons in the world. Curious? Click to know more.
