It borders New Mexico, Utah, Nevada, California, touches Colorado, and has an international border with the states of Sonora and Baja California in Mexico. In addition to the Grand Canyon, many other national forests, parks, monuments, and Indian reservations are located in the state. The capital and largest city in Arizona is Phoenix. Flagstaff has a strong tourism sector, due to its proximity to Grand Canyon National Park, Sedona, and Oak Creek Canyon. Historic Route 66 is the main east-west street. Flagstaff is home to over 60,000 residents and the main campus of Northern Arizona University. Due to its numerous golf courses, Arizona is home to several stops on the PGA Tour, most notably at the FBR Open, more commonly known as the Phoenix Open. Places to Visit in Arizona: 1. The Grand Canyon is a colorful, steep-sided gorge, carved by the Colorado River, in northern Arizona. The Grand Canyon National Park is one of the seven wonders of the world and one of the first national parks in the United States. Try for an overnight stay so that you can enjoy the sunset and sunrise at the Canyon's rim! 2. Railroad through the Verde Valley and see the untouched Arizona. 3. Canyon de Chelly - A beautiful area located in the heart of the Navajo Nation. The Navajo Nation is also the gateway to Monument Valley. 4. Tombstone - the town too tough to die! Remember the scene of the gunfight at the OK corral? 5. I highly recommend visiting the Petrified Forest and the Painted Desert. Bring extra film or extra camera chips with you. 6. Jerome - the town that hangs on a hill side, barely! 7. Kartchner Caverns is Arizona's newest state park. 8. Montezuma Castle 9. Scottsdale is a popular destination for tourists as it is packed full with resorts, shopping, arts and atmosphere. 10. Coal Mine Canyon is the home of hoodoos and legends. 11.

TRAVEL TO THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS The Galápagos Islands are famed for their vast number of endemic species and the studies by Charles Darwin during the voyage of the Beagle that contributed to the inception of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. There are evolutionary wonders such as the Darwin finches, fur seals, flamingos, along with giant tortoises and even tropical penguins. A lot of the animals such as seals, iguanas, tortoises and birds are not afraid of people due to a lack of natural predators. You can snap pictures of these animals and have a memory for life. The Galápagos is a place where people love nature with all its biodiversity at its best. In 1959, the Galapagos National Park was established to preserve the island's natural state. The Galápagos archipelago, with a population of around 40,000, is a province of Ecuador, a country in northwestern South America, and the islands are all part of Ecuador's national park system. The principal language on the islands is Spanish. The archipelago has been known by many different names, including the "Enchanted Islands," because of the way in which the strong and swift currents made navigation difficult.
