Arizona is best known for the Grand Canyon, but this natural landmark is only a taste of what the state has to offer. Other desert highlights include the Hoover Dam, which borders Arizona and Nevada, and the Colorado River, which is perhaps at its most stunning at the Horseshoe Bend where its course curves near the heights of the Glen Canyon Dam. Arizona is famous for its desert expanses and gorgeous red sandstone rock formations and, thanks to its dry climate, the night sky here is often clear and ripe for stargazing.
