Must See Arizona

From top to bottom and everywhere in between, Arizona will blow your mind.

The Grand Canyon

A national Park since 1919, the Grand Canyon is much more than just “a big hole in the ground.” Unique combinations of geologic color and eroded forms, decorate a canyon that is 277 river miles long, and up to 18 miles wide in parts. It’s also up to a mile deep!

Places to explore:

The North Rim
The South Rim
Havasupai Falls
Phantom Ranch

Arizona Architecture

From ancient American Indian cliff dwellings, to mid-century modern marvels designed by none other than Frank Lloyd Wright, Arizona’s architecture has always surprised visitors with its variety. The Mission San Xavier del Bac, south of Tucson, is the oldest European structure in Arizona, combining the native culture of the nearby Tohono O’Odham Nation with the Mission’s Catholic heritage.

Places to explore:

Taliesen West
Hopi House
Historic Architecture at Arizona’s State Parks

Arizona Dark Sky Parks

Arizona has more International Dark Sky communities than anywhere else in the world. Flagstaff was the world’s first designated community, and it has since been joined by Sedona, the Village of Oak Creek, Fountain Hills, Camp Verde, and the Thunder Mountain Pootseev Nightsky community on the Kaibab Paiute Reservation.
