Phoenix weather embodies all that is good in Arizona
The Phoenix weather embodies all that is good in Arizona. The weather is, well, perfect. Natural wonders are minutes away, instead of hours. The desert is unspoiled and plentiful, and getting around is a breeze. Activities like hiking, jeep tours and biking take place in beautiful environs, not in the heart of a city.
Could there be a more perfect destination than the desert southwest? Bring your group here and they’ll revel in the perfect climate, spectacular scenery and the spirit of the old west. The only problem is once they’ve set their eyes on Arizona’s offerings, other destinations will seem inadequate.
Phoenix is the capital of the southwestern U.S. state of Arizona, and anchor of a sprawling, multicity metropolitan area known as the Valley of the Sun. The area is known for high-end resorts, Jack Nicklaus-designed golf courses and vibrant nightclubs, but the city’s biggest attraction may be the sunshine and winter warmth.
