Flagstaff Information:
 Redolent
with the charm of both the nineteenth-century Wild West and the twentieth-century
heyday of Route 66, the small college town of FLAGSTAFF ranks among the
most atmospheric and attractive places to stay in the entire Southwest.
It's split in two by the twin eastwest routes of the main drag, Santa Fe
Avenue, which was once Route 66, and before that the pioneer trail west,
and the tracks of the Santa Fe Railroad whose mournfully whistling trains
still reverberate through the desert night. Immediately north lies the
characterful downtown area, while the lively blocks to the south are predominantly
the preserve of the town's student population.
Arizona Is One Of The Most
Popular Desert Southwest Places To Visit by Cecilia Valenzuela
Just what is it about the Arizona
desert that attracts so many people to this state?
Is it because of the diverse
climate? Is it because Arizona is known so well known for the highly rated
golf courses that allows golfers to play virtually every day? Certainly
there are those who rate the high quality health care as one of the major
reasons why they travel to the state?
Or is the reason that so
many people flock to the desert southwest is just because of the simple
fact that constant sunshine can be felt on more than 300 days a year?
There really is no single
reason why so many people travel or permanently move to Arizona. There
just happens to be a long list of many cities and remote towns that offer
visitors everything they are looking for.
Whether you are looking for
the city life of Phoenix or Scottsdale or looking to take in a little rest
and relaxation of the mountainous high country, Arizona has so many places
to choose from that the only problem you might have is choosing one single
location over the other locations that attract so people from many cities
and countries.
Many visitors will be traveling
to the desert southwest when Arizona hosts Super Bowl 42 on February 3,
2008. There have been many already who have purchased their Super Bowl
tickets and have made all of their other necessary reservations to experience
this NFL experience of a lifetime.
Arizona tourism allows everyone
to explore the diverse landscapes that can be found throughout the state.
Arizona travel also includes the magical (and mysterious, to some) red
rocks and even snow-capped mountains making it possible for visitors to
explore winter activities such as skiing, snowboarding and snowmobiling.
If you are wondering where
to stay when you visit you can always request an Arizona Travel Guide that
will assist you with your travel plans.
Arizonan truly has it all.
If you like warmer weather, you can be rest assured that you will find
that, as temperatures in the summer typically range well over 100 degrees.
Just remember that there is usually very little humidity, so it is a dry
heat, which to some, doesn't mean much until they experience the summer
weather.
Whatever your interests or
skill levels are, there's an endless list of activities that involve AZ
tourism!
The AZ office of tourism
knows and understands that Arizona depends and thrives on its yearly visitors.
Whether it's a reenactment
like a good old fashioned wild west gun fight, a horse back riding tour,
or one of the many dinner theaters that are offered, the desert southwest
is waiting to accommodate you and your family.
If you are looking for convenience,
there are many places that you can stay that will offer you the perfect
luxury of picking you up right at the steps of your hotel or motel. One
of the attractive things visitors really appreciate is the complimentary
escort service that many of the cities offer to their guests. You'll find
this service in such cities such as the Grand Canyon, Sedona, Flagstaff
and Tucson, to name just a few.
Native American ruins and
fossils that are over 225 million years old can be found in the state which
offers many just what they want to experience.
The Arizona Office of Tourism
offers great Arizona experiences in the form of nature, heritage, culture,
and a magical history that astounds many people who thought they already
knew what Arizona was all about. And if you are looking to just educate
yourself on the state, there are many museums, such as the Heard Museum,
and art galleries that can be discovered with an emphasis on Native Americans.
