Explanation of the Phenomenon:
In this captivating video, a tourist guide demonstrates how canyons form in deserts by pouring water on sand. As the water soaks into the sand and then more water is poured on it, the sand hardens and forms intricate patterns, mimicking the natural process of canyon formation.
How do actually Canyons Form in Deserts:
Canyons in deserts are primarily formed through the process of erosion. Over time, water from rivers or rainfalls flows through the desert, cutting through layers of sediment and rock. This continuous flow of water erodes the land, gradually creating deep valleys and intricate patterns. Flash floods are particularly effective in desert environments, where the sudden rush of water can carve out canyons rapidly. The combination of water flow, sediment deposition, and the natural hardening of sand creates the stunning geological formations we see today.

00:00So this is a little demonstration that we'd like to show the guests on how the canyon was created, just by using water and the sand.
00:08Watch this.
00:10How would you say rain?
00:12雨水
00:14下雨
00:16With rain here guys, water will absorb into the ground just like a sponge, and fairly quickly.
00:23Wow!
00:25Instantly guys, from a soft surface into a much more denser surface.
00:31This process will just repeat itself over time.
00:34So it'll get wet, and then it'll dry.
00:38它说这个过程会不断地重复,就是下雨之后,对,它有个洞,然后又下一次又下雨了。
00:45然后又有沙子盖着,然后又下雨,就不停地重复。
00:49So as this is happening guys, over time, as the sand is slowly piling up on top, everything down here is slowly getting squished and compressed.
01:00下面的都被积压。
01:02Eventually what is left behind guys...
01:05Wow!
01:09这样形成的。
01:11原来这样。
01:13It's sandstone.
01:15So this is this.
01:17Eventually look guys.
01:22Wow!
01:24Sandstone.
01:26Cool!
01:28So now that we have...
