t isn’t hard to figure out how Arizona acquired its popular nickname, “The Grand Canyon State.” Drive five hours due north from the State Capitol in Phoenix and you’ll run right into one of the most jaw-dropping geographical wonders on earth. What truly amazes visitors about Arizona, however, is the remarkable diversity of terrain, climate and attractions that you’ll encounter along the way. From the lakes, pines and 7,000-foot elevation of Northern and Eastern Arizona to the western desert towns along the Colorado River to the appealing blend of Old World charm and big-city amenities in Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona offers something


for everyone. Toss in superb spas, shopping and restaurants, major league sports and sophisticated cultural attractions, then mix with stunning natural backdrops such as Sedona’s red rocks, Tucson’s cactus forests and Flagstaff’s snow-capped mountain peaks and you have the ingredients for an unforgettable visit. With a legacy shaped from Old West, Native American and Hispanic influences, and more than 320 days of sunshine annually, Arizona is truly the jewel of the Southwest. Welcome!
