The greater Phoenix Metropolitan area is the capital of Arizona, and the sixth most populous city in the United States.



With scant rainfall and lots of sunshine, Phoenix is a popular destination for people who enjoy the desert climate. The warm winters allow for year-round outdoor activities like hiking and biking.



The cultural scene of the Phoenix area is lively, with a number of venues for concerts, sports, theater, and the arts. Local museums have some of the most extensive collections of historic Navajo and Hopi artworks.
