Things to do in Arizona, United States: The Best Civic Centers

April 26, 2022 Ying Subia

The state of Arizona is one that features a fantastic diversity of landscapes and areas of geological interest. North Arizona is famous for the Grand Canyon, a colorful chasm with steep rocky walls more than a mile deep and stretching some 277 miles alongside the Colorado River. Other notable destinations in North Arizona include Flagstaff set alongside the San Francisco Peaks which has the largest ponderosa pine forest, Museum of Northern Arizona, and is close to a number of national parks and monuments. On the south side of Arizona lies the city of Phoenix, the largest in Arizona. Notable day trips in Phoenix include the Heard Museum which is one of America's largest collections of Native American art, Phoenix Museum of History, as well as the Desert Botanical garden which has a great collection of desert plants.

Scottsdale Civic Center

Reviewed By earlr877 - Scottsdale, United States

We bought a condo within two blocks of Scottsdale's Civic Center Park. Oddly, at the time of purchase we were unaware of this gem of a park. It contains the Performing Arts Center, Contemporary Arts Museum, the amazing Civic Center Library, City Hall, several restaurants, a major local hotel, interesting fountains, and impressive public art. We enjoy major festivals there throughout the year. It is one of the most photographed areas of any city in Arizona. Just this morning, some visitors asked me to take their pictures in front of Robert Indiana's LOVE sculpture, a spot that so popular it's hard for the city to keep the grass alive in front of it. The Scottsdale Civic Center is an exceptional gem, far surpassing similar facilities in much larger cities.
