Tucson

Tucson, Arizona is "the bride" of the Southwest, with something old -- its historic western heritage, something new -- its modern conveniences and burgeoning businesses, something borrowed -- a page out of the Wild West and something blue -- with its wide, open skies. The second-largest city in Arizona, with a population close to a million, Tucson is nestled like a desert oasis in the valley of five mountain ranges.

Surrounded by cactus, forests and breathtaking sunsets, Tucson's diverse attractions and always mild climate make it the perfect place for a honeymoon or a journey through the past. Located in the borderland, combining Mexican, Spanish and Native American cultures with a gleaming metropolis, Tucson is the perfect marriage of adventure, relaxation, sightseeing, history and arts, with always something to say "I do" to.
