This year is the Corona Pandemic,
All theaters were closed all at once from March 12th.

Initially scheduled to close by April,
Closed until September
Furthermore, the museum will be closed until January 2021.
...... Every time, the resumption is delayed,

On October 3rd, we brought a customer from VELTRA to the Grand Canyon!
I was so happy to participate in the tour from Japan that I almost cried (thanks).
As you know, Japan still has strict restrictions on returnees from overseas after returning to Japan, so I was really surprised because I thought that it would be a long time before customers could come to the United States, let alone overseas.
Thank you very much for coming all the way with the preparedness for corona inspection and voluntary quarantine after returning to Japan! !!
He was also pleased that he took measures against corona and organized the tour, and he said, "I recommend the tour to the people around me with confidence," which was a great encouragement.
I can't feel free to come yet, but I am waiting for you to be ready to guide you locally.

Introducing three points of this observatory where you can touch the outside air ...

Therefore, you can enjoy a superb view without obstructing your view.
② You can see the Empire State Building on the upper floors (same line of sight) ③ You can see the shape of Central Park clearly (before it gets dark)

Top of the Rock is currently working on the following measures to combat coronavirus infections.
・ Temperature measurement before entering the building ・ Masks are worn by the staff (all smile marks!)
・ Installation of hand sanitizers at each location ・ Elevator can accommodate up to 4 people per elevator to maintain social distance ・ To keep space, remove the bench on the 67th floor, change the arrangement of gift shop items ... Such.

New York is moving forward for safe and secure sightseeing!

This week's Grand Canyon.
The first photo is Mercer Point. The average tourist comes especially from California and the same Arizona, which are accessible by car.
The second photo is the tour bus parking lot. As you can see, only our van was stopped.
Many Grand Canyon tours depart and arrive in Las Vegas, but since tourists from far away have not yet arrived in Las Vegas, it seems that it will take time to revive the bus tour.
In the Grand Canyon National Park, it is compulsory to wear a mask both inside and outside the facility, but many general tourists who have not been informed of this are not wearing masks at the observatory. ..
