Phoenix Travel Guide
Set in the hot and dry state of Arizona, Phoenix stands tall in the midst of the desert, a home to around 4 million citizens, which makes it the most populous city in the whole of the United States. This is partially due to the area’s development in the past, when the intense heat meant it was safer for people to stay close by, creating the city that Phoenix has become. Of course there is much more to it than that, and the foresight, support and desire to get on displayed by the people of Phoenix has carried them to where they are now.
