Arizona Travel OverviewArizona is located in the South West of the United States. It is a landlocked state and for a large part covered by desert. These deserts are one of the main attractions. Phoenix the capital is an easy going city and a good base for exploring the rest of the state. Arizona is still asociated very much with the spirit of the wild west. For anyone interest in the the 1880s; when gunfighters stalked throughout southern Arizona; a visit to Tombstone is a must. The Grand Canyon national park is located in the North of Arizona; it is without a doubt the most visited attraction of the state. Navajo National Monument offers a unique insight in the precolumbian cultures of this region. The houses the cliffdwellers made here are truly impressive. Sierra Vista is a cracked out little town south of Tucson by about 70 miles. It's full of weirdos and bizzaro people. A newcome luminary is 'BibleMan'; aka 'Bible-Biker'. He's an elderly bum who rides a bicycle covered in buckets scrawled with jesus things. He is frequently spotted infront of the Jack In The Box restaurant on Fry Blvd; barking at passing traffic and carrying a child-sized acoustic guitar. Popular Destinations
