 Travel Phoenix
by HAMZA
Phoenix is the capital and largest city of the state of Arizona where hordes of Midwesterners flee each winter to escape the brutal cold back home. The area is home to a large population of Mexicans and Mexican-Americans – both recent immigrants and descendants of families who lived here when it was still part of Mexico. Although more authentic Mexican food can be found in the southern part of the state near the border, you'll find variations on tacos almost anywhere you go. Because of the draw of luxury resorts, Phoenix restaurants offer a sophisticated array of types of food. The recently expanded Phoenix Art Museum draws blockbuster exhibits and owns an impressive collection. The Heard Museum displays an unparalleled collection of Native American art of yesterday. The Arizona Theater Company, which performs part time in Tucson, its main home, and the Arizona Opera, also based in Tucson, perform in Phoenix, as do many Broadway road shows and big musical acts. If you're a lover of the outdoors, there's no need to leave the city, South Mountain Park is the world's largest city park and offers hiking, biking, camping, horseback riding, petroglyphs and a panoramic vista of the entire valley from the top of the mountain.
