Right across from Metro Center Mall right off the Loop 101, there is an amusement park for families. It?「どィび「s called Castles and Coasters. They have almost everything there it is small but is really fun and enjoyable. Also there are several water parks in AZ to help you cool down during the summer. You have Big Splash, Sun Surf and there?「どィび「s one more that I cannot remember off the top of my head. There are tons of fun museums and zoos to go to. My favorite zoo is the Wild Life Zoo by Luke.

Things to do in Phoenix area:

+ two hours north: Flagstaff, hiking, skiing, mountains

+ in case you wondered: The Grand Canyon is 4 to 4.5 hours away. Be prepared though, it?「どィび「s a busy place.

+ Chase Field was the first baseball facility in the world to combine a retractable roof, air conditioning, and a natural turf field.(metrostation near by)

+ The Desert Botanical Garden has one of the world?「どィび「s finest collections of desert plants.

+ Climb Piestewa Peak: Piestewa Peak, formerly known as Squaw Peak, is part of the Phoenix Mountains Preserve. The elevation of Piestewa Peak is 2,608 feet; the total elevation gain for the Summit Trail is 1,190 feet. That might not sound high, but hikers of all levels can get a great workout climbing this mountain, and get a great view of the city when they get to the top. If you decide to hike the Summit Trail, though, you won?「どィび「t be alone. According to the City of Phoenix.

+ Scottsdale Art Walk: There are more than 100 art galleries in Scottsdale.

+ The Boyce Thompson Arboretum brings together plants from the Earth?「どィび「s many and varied deserts and dry lands.

+ Rawhide Western Town and Steakhouse: Rawhide has got to be the best place to take kids from back east that want to be cowboys and cowgirls.

+ The Phoenix Zoo is one of the younger zoos in the country.

+ The Apache Trail will be one of the most memorable drives you?「どィび「ll ever take. Your adventure will begin in Apache Junction, about 25 miles east of downtown Phoenix.

+ South Mountain Park: At over 16,000 acres, South Mountain Park and Preserve often is considered the largest

+ Montezuma Castle and Tuzigoot: About one and a half hours north of Phoenix are two National Monuments that are well worth a day trip from the Phoenix area.
