Description
Indian Folk Village—often called the Native American Village—sits atop the West Rim at Eagle Point. Built by the Hualapai Tribe, it features life‑size replicas of housing, ovens, and sweat lodges representing Hualapai, Navajo, Hopi, Havasupai, and Plains cultures. Visitors follow a level path through the exhibits, then relax in an open‑air amphitheater for storytelling, flute music, and dance performances. Entry is bundled with Grand Canyon West admission, making the village an easy cultural add‑on to Skywalk or helicopter tours.
