Mention Arizona and most Americans conjure up the Wild, Wild West of their childhood fantasies.

Arizona, is the place, in fact, where the famous gunfight at the OK Corral took place, in Tombstone, Arizona. Here, also, is where Indian chiefs Geronimo and Chochise led a pitched battle against "pale face" invaders of the Old West.

Today, Phoenix & Tucson are top Arizona travel hubs, mixing urban amenities with Western charm.

Throughout the rest of the state, other major attractions include the Grand Canyon, the Petrified Forest, the Painted Desert, Hoover Dam, and Fort Apache.

The old London Bridge reconstructed at Lake Havasu also competes with nearby Glendale as a favorite student spring break destination.
