Arizona
In Arizona, with bright sunshine and fine weather year-round,
you'll find endless places in which to fish, sail, swim, stroll,
tramp, run, pedal, paddle -- and even just sit and be amazed. You
can climb into the sky by balloon or hang-glider, explore the dark
depths of great caves, raft whitewater rivers, and put miles between
you and civilization on the back of a trustworthy horse. You can
get a close-up view of plants and animals in the wild, or at Arizona’s
many zoos, parks, and botanical gardens.
History comes alive at every turn, where the spirit of Geronimo,
Wyatt Earp and Padre Kino lives on. Explore the locations steeped
in heritage and dedicated to our Old West, Mexican and Native American
culture. You'll find yourself intrigued, as well, by a remarkable
array of fine-art venues, including historic theatres, colorful
galleries, and renowned museums.
Numbering over 325 golf courses and counting, Arizona has a tee
time and a skill level for everyone. Several of the state's courses
are included in Golf Digest's list of America's greatest 100 Golf
Courses and 15 holes are on its list of the top 500 in the world.
The PGA and LPGA each hold two tournaments in the state; the most
popular, the Phoenix Open, draws over 400,000 spectators a year.
For some people, an unforgettable vacation means great lodging
and being pampered at a luxury resort, with elegant restaurants
and full-service spas a short stroll away. For others, it means
spending days in the saddle and nights sleeping in a bedroll under
the stars. For still others, it means relaxing for a night in a
historic hotel or a mountain lodge. Whatever your lodging taste,
you'll find just the right accommodations in the Grand Canyon State
and its hundreds of lodging options including resorts, hotels,
motels, RV parks, campgrounds, cabins, dude ranches, and B&Bs.
Whatever your interests, Arizona has something for everyone. |
