Lying on the periphery of the Sonoran Desert, home of the native saguaro cactus, the Phoenix, Arizona's natural landscape can be harsh and unforgiving. Yet it's also beautiful, with expanses of exotic desert vegetation, breathtaking mountains and bright rock mesas in shades of orange, red and yellow. Cultivated neighborhoods are just as lush. Palm and citrus trees thrive on golf courses, fuchsia bougainvillea blooms on mailboxes and walls of pink oleander line the roads. But the landscape isn't all that's spectacular. You'll find a vivacious, lively arts scene in metropolitan Phoenix. Phoenix is referred to as the "Valley of the Sun" because it is one of the country's hottest destinations for work and play.
