Hotels in Phoenix (1 OYO)

Phoenix is known as the desert city. Given the landscape and ecology of the region, outdoor activities like hiking and rock climbing are a hit with visitors. It is no wonder that most of its tourist attractions revolve around desert resorts and natural parks. Some of the popular places that let you experience the rich geography of the region are- Arizona Museum of Natural History- For an enriching look into the southwestern history of the USA, head to this 80,000 square-foot museum for a complete journey from prehistoric times to the present. You can observe the skeletal remains of the geological dinosaurs alongside the hunting tools of the palaeolithic era that were excavated in this region. The nearest accommodation to the museum is OYO Hotel Mesa AZ Downtown East. Grand Canyon National Park- The Grand Canyon is an astonishing wonder of nature that awes visitors with its size and layers of rocks dating back to the Precambrian times. The areas of the park accessible to the public are the south and north rims. The rest of the park is hostile and the rocks are too rugged to allow any trails. The south rim is comparatively more visited than the north. You can enjoy mule rides that take you a few thousand feet deep into the canyon. Phoenix Zoo- Home to over 1400 animals, the Phoenix Zoo is USA’s largest non-profit zoo. You can watch Sumatran tigers freely mark the savanna as their own, hand-feed giraffes, and explore the local flora and fauna of the Sonoran Desert. You can also fish in the lagoons or golf at the Papago Golf Course amidst the breathtaking lushness of the green landscape. Old Town Scottsdale- You can pick up a variety of souvenirs from the eclectic shops housed in the buildings along the western-style pathways. When you are done shopping, head to the galleries for a look at the work of some of the famous artists of the southwest. The Paul Scott Gallery displays works in varied styles including impressionism, classical realism, and modernism, to name a few. It is an entertainment district, so you can round off your day with a pitcher of mimosas and live music from homegrown bands. What To Eat? A PBJ & Bacon Burger might sound like something that should never be allowed to exist, but at Rehab Burger Therapy, you will be pleasantly surprised by the harmony of the flavours. To beat the heat of Phoenix, indulge in an Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich at Churn. The coma-inducing lavish breakfast spread on Sunday mornings at Matt’s is the best-kept secret of Phoenix. How To Reach? The Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is around 3 miles from downtown Phoenix and you can get there either by the Valley Metro light-rail system or the Phoenix Transit Bus. It takes about 20 minutes from the airport to reach the histrionic locations of the city such as the Arizona Museum of Natural History. If you are coming from the neighbouring states of the US via rail, the nearest Amtrak Station is in Flagstaff, which is about 2 hours away from Phoenix.
