The city of Maricopa in Gila River Valley is south of Phoenix, Arizona lying on the northern edge of the Sonoran Desert. If you’re interested in exploring vacation spots in Arizona, Maricopa’s strategic location makes it a great starting point for things to do. The area is home to Ak-Chin Indians and you can learn more about their history at the Ak-Chin Him-Dak Eco-Museum. Blessed with warm weather all year round, Maricopa is popular with tourists for several activities including golf. The Southern Dunes Golf Club is one of the most sought-after spots in the city. Tourists who want a slice of the Old West can head to the frontier town of Rawhide, which is part of the Gila River Indian community. Here kids can indulge in burro rides. You can take a ride on the desert train to get a glimpse of the old town.
You can also catch cowboys and gunslingers performing stunts as part of the show to help recreate the place’s rich history. Adrenalin junkies can take a ride on the mechanical bull or ride a stagecoach. You can even go rock climbing and hunt for gold! Adventure enthusiasts can also try their hand at hand gliding. The gastronomes can revel in some Western-style cuisine. For art enthusiasts, the Casa Grande Art Museum is a great way to learn about Arizonian artists. Those who want to unwind can simply soak in the desert landscape or head to the Jane Askew Memorial Park or the Maricopa Lake Park. The Dwarf Car Museum is also a great place to go.
