This warm climate state draws travelers year-round.
The southwestern U.S. state of Arizona is best known for being the home of the Grand Canyon and for their Mexican and Navajo gastronomic influences. This state offers some of the most beautiful natural scenery in the country and delicious local cuisine.
Here are our top three reasons why you need to visit Arizona.
Arizona is affordable to visit. Popular travel site Lonely Planet listed Arizona in the top 10 best value places to visit in 2018. According to Lonely Planet, the most budget-friendly travel option is to book basic roadside motels along the way. In addition to this, taking advantage of the variety of camping and hiking options allow for even more savings.
The scenery is breathtaking. Arizona is an absolute visual delight. Within state lines, you will find the iconic Grand Canyon National Park. Climb to the top of this mile-deep rock formation for breathtaking views of the caverns below. While you are here, pay a visit to Horseshoe Bend, a lesser known, but perhaps just as beautiful geologic marvel. Horseshoe Bend is a mere five miles from the entrance to Grand Canyon National Park. Here you can enjoy spectacular views of the meandering Colorado River.
Channel your inner great outdoorsman while in Arizona. Take a chance and try roughing it in Arizona’s vast wilderness. This way you can experience the immense natural beauty up close and personal, and save on your travel expenses. Grand Canyon National Park, Antelope Canyon, and Petrified Forest National Park are a few examples of the variety of outdoor offerings. Hike Arizona’s massive rock formations or follow the length of the Colorado River for the ultimate outdoor adventure.
In addition to these top three reasons, of course we think that the burritos in Arizona are pretty good. We’d visit here any day just for a delicious “burro,” as the locals call them.
