9 months of GREAT weather!!

You don't know how hot it really is...
In a nutshell
More than just the desert, there is culture, fine dining and other places to explore!
23 Reviews I had the opportunity to go back to Desert Botanical Garden again this year (2011), taking my son, Aaron, for the first time. It was a rewarding experience as always. Icing on the cake was we used the Phoenix Public Library's excellent "Culture Pass.'
Scottsdale's Art District and Old Town
9 Reviews The town has done a nice job of restoring the downtown to draw people to the large number of shops and places to eat in the old town sector. They have the area split up into sectors. A free trolley ride takes you to various places desired. I guess there may be 150+ shops and maybe 25+ eating places...
16 Reviews July 26, 2009 ---- Wow, this place just beside the Phoenix Zoo is just amazing -- it is a big HOLE in the middle of the a little mountain, and you climb up easily, and be up there in just 5 minutes (maybe not for wheelchair-bound though)! Easy going up the the side of the hill where they have steps...
6 Reviews Although this lake is actually in Peoria (35 miles northwest of Downtown Phoenix), I am adding it to my Phoenix "Things to Do" because it is not that far. On the way to this lake, you will see lots and lots of saguaro cacti, and it is amazing to be free from the city in just 40 minutes or so from...

Top 5 My top 5 restaurants in Phoenix and area
4 Reviews Mi Comida (My Food) formerly known as Mi Cocina, Mi Pais (My Kitchen, My Country) serves up absolutely wonderful South American food in plenteous portions at rock-bottom prices. the food is mainly Peruvian, Ecuadoran, and Colombian, but there are cameos from various other South American nations,...
11 Reviews This is a darling little restaurant on 16th street. A great little cafe with excellent food. It has a wonderful atmosphere with funky art on the walls. The theme in the bar and bathroom features Mexican Wrestlers. Too cute. The food makes this restaurant special. We went for brunch and had a...
9 Reviews In the heart of beautiful Desert Ridge Marketplace, in North Phoenix lies an underground nightclub called Scorch Bar. The club features indoor and outdoor bars, a dance floor, and cozy booths (that fill up fast). Scorch Bar is filled with giant lava lamps and with glowing bar tops, and (sometimes)...
6 Reviews Margarita Rocks is a great place to go dancing in Tempe, AZ! I've been there many of times with some great friends! The DJ plays Top 40 music. There are 4 bars and two dance floors in this 3 story club!! If you want to dance and hang out with a twenty something crowd, this is the place to be! Very...
6 Reviews I guess the quality of mass transit in Phoenix is up to the individual. I used it for years, one can get around the city of Phoenix and the surrounding suburbs fairly easily, albeit, it is time-consuming. For an American city, the bus system isn't bad, but it's not like Europe, or even larger...
12 Reviews Because of the huge area to cover in the Phoenix SMSA metro area, a vehicle is the best method of transport. The signs to find the rentals and return must be read carefully, though. They are off site from the airport, and shuttles needed to get to the 3 mile away destination
4 Reviews Chandler Fashion Square mall has many home furnashing shops, hair salons, restarants in the front and a wide variety of clothing shops for women. If you are a guy you may want to try Fiesta Mall because it has more stores with mens clothes. There is also a movie theatre with state of the art seating...
2 Reviews Well you can't go to America without visiting atleast one outlet centre. This outlet centre is all indoors and has 175 retailers, resterants and entertainment areas. It even has an IMAX theatre. Hops include Linens and things, JCPenny, polo, guess, off 5th Sak's fifth avenue and many more. It also...
4 Reviews Maps in Phoenix are not very user friendly. I guess the place is growing so fast that map makers can't keep up. It was frustrating to try to follow the map but streets were not marked or just not on the map (even major streets.) Sometimes there were connecting streets that were simply not on the...
5 Reviews We went hiking and all put on sunscreen before we left, with sweating and the dry heat melting it off we looked like lobsters! Not only that we ran out of water and felt like the hike home lasted a century!
Go out of the city and into the state of Arizona
3 Reviews Don't be daunted by the locals and their customs, you will miss all the fun and too many dollars. Places outside downtown are served by buses, lots of them... In my case I was staying in Baseline Road near Arizona Mills and instead of spending a $15 taxi ride to downtown Tempe I took the $1.25...
1 Review I usually like to investigate local history when I travel, but this museum was quite a dissapointment. http://www.pmoh.org Call ahead, most exhibits were closed when I went. I discovered that AFTER I paid to enter.... (602) 253-2734
10 Reviews In the winter, most "official" hiking mountains in Phoenix are packed, with long waits for parking and crowded trails (especially Camelback and Squaw Peak). But there is one official trail that is only used by locals and that has beautiful views... Lookout mountain, in North Phoenix. The trail to...
Go out of the city and into the state of Arizona
16 Reviews Cottonwood is just a little over an hour drive from Phoenix, but immediately you feel like you are transported into another time of cowboys and Indans after you reach the Old Town of this city... Just follow the road out of Cottonwood and then you turn right when you see the Tuzigoot sign (the GPS...
Peaks and Mountains in Phoenix
10 Reviews The view from Squaw (now Piestewa) Peak summit is breathtaking. You can see virtually all of Phoenix while lounging on the rocks and enjoying a cool breeze. Not a bad way to spend a sunny afternoon, especially in the fall or spring when temperatures are hiking-perfect.
Go out of town and into the State of Arizona
6 Reviews Families and folks who are tent camping can face a lot of difficulties when trying to find a place to set up camp near Phoenix. Unlike other places, many RV Parks in the Phoenix area do not welcome children. They are basically rolling retirement villiages and don't want screaming kids around. At...

The city itself is only part of the larger suburb complex of surrounding residential and retail places to shop, eat and drive around. End to end it must be about 60 miles east/west, and 40 miles...
I moved to Phoenix in January 2003. I intend on making an excellent VT site for all people on VT and especially for my friends and family who will visit me. So the first picture is my apartment...
