How did visiting specific landmarks differ back decades ago compared to today?

Let’s say you visited the Grand Canyon 50 years ago, and then 50 years later again. In any case, how would a past visit anywhere differ from today?

    Crowds. Visited a number of national parks as a kid in the early ‘80s. Again over the last several years. You can no longer drive into most of the parks. It’s park and take shuttles or walk. And there’s crowds. Sometimes it’s almost amusement park levels.
