Desert beauty is one of the most noticeable things about the city, from the painted and photographed landscapes of local artists to the real peaks and dives of nearby Sabino Canyon. Home to the University of Arizona, Tucson has great restaurants and bars that appeal to students as well as visiting family members. What the city itself is most known for, however, is its stunning historic Southwestern architecture. Sites like the Sosa-Carrillo Fremont House Museum and the San Xavier Del Bac Mission stand as echoes of centuries past.
