Profiling The Unique Monument Phoenix Attractions

By Carolina Walsh


The state of Arizona is renowned as a tourist haven for the number of interesting sites that have a worldwide fame. Worth a particular mention are monument phoenix attractions that to date have no match in terms of their significance in the development of the American success story. Though many had felt that the rapid development of the city put to jeopardy the lasting impression of these monuments, concerted efforts have ensured that this fear was entirely unfounded.

Worth of special mention here are the amazingly well preserved Victorian era buildings found downtown. Observing their quaintly elegant roofs stand in their elegance in the midst of the modern infrastructure projects is a site that never ceases to amaze. Visitors from all over the world gaze and wonder at this wondrous spectacle of another age and time.

Another set of great attraction that never ceases in attracting tourists by the droves are the ruins of Native Americans. These ruins which are in part very well preserved bear testament to an ancient culture and way of life that was unfortunately wiped off the landscape centuries ago. There are some which are located within a convenient drive from the city center.

The Arizona Capitol still retains its title despite the fact that it no longer serves as the state capitol. There is still a significant number of public functions still served out under its roof though it has been gracefully relegated more and more to the role as a standing testament of the historic journey regarding the local citizens. It has stood on the site since it was built in 1898 but has had to undergo some restoration especially to the 'Winged Victory' statue that still graces its copper roof.

You will also be delighted to view the Burton Barr library set as it is in a truly scenic setting overlooking the city skyline. From the first instance you view its gracefully imposing architecture, all notions you have of libraries being a bore will fly off. Even more awe inspiring are its carefully carved out halls that you can view endlessly.

There is a host of places that one can visit on a tour of Arizona. However, no visit is complete until you have had a go at the attractions of monument Phoenix options. A true feast for the eyes awaits anyone who cares enough to give in to a visit. Read more about: Monument Phoenix
