Although most well-known for the Grand Canyon, Arizona’s dramatic landscape doesn’t stop there. The state’s scenic beauty also features cacti, mountains, lakes, waterfalls, and iconic landmarks like Horseshoe Bend and Monument Valley.
In addition to Grand Canyon National Park, there are two other national parks in Arizona—Saguaro National Park and Petrified Forest National Park, both of which are incredibly unique. Within Petrified Forest National Park, you can see some spectacular sights including the Painted Desert, Rainbow Forest, and Agate House. In Saguaro National Park, take Cactus Forest Drive for amazing cacti views and see some prehistoric Native American history in the Signal Hill Petroglyph Area.
