Scottsdale is located in central
Arizona in the heart of the Sonoran Desert. This
unique setting provides the city with a whole host
of benefits including breathtaking scenic vistas,
an abundance of golf courses, and blue skies filled
with sunshine 330 days of the year. The activities
are endless and the night life is filled with many
fun options! There is no better place to eat than
the Grand Canyon State. Cuisine of every kind, much
of it by award-winning chefs can be found in every
corner of Arizona. Travelers seeking authentic native
or Mexican food will not be disappointed.
Phoenix offers plenty of desert-style courses
as well as tropical resort-style golf. Several of the golf courses
out here have been untouched by home construction since they are
on Native American reservations, preserving the indigenous vegetation
and wildlife. Surrounded by the scenic landscape of the Sonoran
Desert, Phoenix provides the excitement of the Old West within a
thriving metropolitan area with cultural activity. More than three
dozen luxurious resorts are scattered throughout the Valley, many
of which provide spectacular spas that offer special treatments
native to Arizona. Greater Phoenix has earned the title of “Golf
Capital of the World” from the National Golf Foundation. For
adventurers, the options are limitless, including Jeep tours, hot-air
balloon rides above spectacular scenery, horseback riding and rock
climbing. When it’s time for fun and relaxation, get out and
see a show, symphony or ballgame in Downtown–Copper Square,
visit museums filled with Native American art and history, and enjoy
incredible local cuisine. As one of only eight US cities to field
teams in all four major professional sports, Greater Phoenix is
a sports haven. At the same time, the Valley is truly a shopper’s
paradise with fabulous malls, unique boutiques, art galleries, antique
shops and outlet centers.
