Phoenix Must-Sees

Downtown Phoenix features a concentration of historic and modern landmarks centered around Heritage and Science Park. Visitors can explore the 1895 Victorian Rosson House or attend performances at the historic Orpheum Theatre and Symphony Hall. The district is home to major sports venues, including the retractable-roof Chase Field and the Footprint Center. Cultural institutions like the George Washington Carver Museum and the Arizona Science Center offer specialized exhibits, while the Romanesque Revival-style St. Mary’s Basilica stands as the city's oldest Catholic parish.
