About Tucson
Dubbed the Old
Pueblo, Tucson is a fast-growing city known as much for its metropolitan sophistication as for
its unique blend of cultures. Vast deserts, green canyons and majestic mountain
ranges form an impressive backdrop, and close proximity to the Mexican border is
evident in the architecture, distinctive cuisine, lively fiestas and the annual
festivals. Tucson's mild, dry climate - blessed with year-round sun - makes it a
popular winter resort. Visitors can take in attractions such as the Titan
Missile Museum, Biosphere 2, Reid Park Zoo, Kitt Peak Observatory and several
national parks. Economically, the city is driven by electronics and missile
production, and is recognized as both the premier health services center of the
Southwest and the astronomy center of the world.
Did you know?
Anytime is a great time to visit
Tucson. Known for its superb
weather, the city is warm and sunny throughout most of the year, with incredibly
low humidity. Bring along a sweater, though - the temperature drops at sunset
allowing for cool but comfortable evenings.
