Hoover Dam

 It was year 2006 and Akesha was 6-month old when we visited the famous Hoover Dam. We had a great time exploring the place, and it was amazing! Akesha was so behaved during our trip.
The Hoover Dam also known as Boulder Dam was one of the first ever concrete gravity-arch dams constructed in the United States.  Hoover Dam as it is more famously known was constructed over a five year process that stated in 1931 and ended in 1935 and is located in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River. One of the largest dams in the world, Hoover Dam is 660 feet thick (201 meters) and 726 feet tall (221 meters).
