βWe've visited a number of state houses and this was a good one to see the original building and how it has expanded over time. Great history from the time Arizona was a territory, how the US gave them to become a state if they joined with New Mexico as one state, but they opposed that offer and a few years later became a state on their own. We did get to see the current Senate chamber, but not the House of Representatives which is undergoing some renovations. They have a very extensive active miniature train display, with trains running and volunteers working on it.β

βNeat place to visit with exhibits on every level. I really liked the 1st floor art gallery which has some large colorful paintings by Frank Ybarra on display until March 31st 2020. There is a free parking lot just to the east of the capitol complex, and in the adjoining park there are a number of sculptures and memorial displays, including a full-sized outline of the USS Arizona.β

βThis museum and archaeological park is in the midst of the City of Phoenix (close by is the airport). It is an interesting and informative exhibit for all ages, about the life Hohokam people from AD 950 to AD 1450. The museum has indoor exhibits and an outside archaeological village which you follow through pathways. Itβs so interesting to see how life was so many years ago. As one exhibit expressed - the Hohokam lived among the mountains surrounding Phoenix, that still exist today. It takes about 1-2 hours to absorb the museum and well worth the time for a step back into history..β

βAn interesting memorial park near the Arizona Capital Building in Phoenix. It honors not only war veterans but other groups such as police and firefighters who have made the ultimate sacrifice for their country or their community. A fascinating display revolves around the USS Arizona, with a mast, an anchor and one of it's main guns on display. One of the main guns from the USS Missouri is also on display, so the visitor can feel a connection to both the beginning and the end of WWII.β
