Why should you choose Phoenix???

Phoenix is the capital city of Arizona and is in the central region of the state. People know Phoenix for its year-round sun, desert beauty, and world-class resorts and golf.

It is also the fifth-largest city in the U.S. and offers sophisticated urbanscapes, southwest culture, and lots of outdoor adventure.

Sometimes, bigger really is better. Phoenix (the "Valley of the Sun" to locals) invites you to enjoy major destinations for recreation and relaxation, must-visit venues in the culinary and cocktail kingdoms, and long-standing arts, civic and cultural institutions.

That just scratches the surface of things to do in Phoenix!
