The trees are beautiful and unusual. The cactus is very big and taller than many people. You must come and visit. It is beautiful and has a desert-style atmosphere.
The Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix was founded in 1937. It covers an area of 145 acres and has 50,000 species of desert plants, one-third of which are locally owned, and 139 species are rare, threatened or endangered. Walking in the environment of plants, flowers, birds, butterflies and some wild animals is like a paradise. After the visit, change cars at the nearby airport and end the short vacation in Page and Phoenix. Return to DC to continue the "confinement" until the epidemic is over...

Phoenix Zoo is located in Tempe Arizona and it is by far one of the best zoos I have been to. There are many attractions to the zoo like the wildlife. Phoenix Zoo has places like sea life walk where you can go see the sea life. The have a trail called Desert trail where you can see all the desert animals. they also have an area where you can see all the flowers in Arizona. they have a kid's land for just the kids they have a water park for the kids the animals that you see are mainly ones that you would see in a safari because it is a desert. Arizona You Don't See Much of like polar bears. it's a great little Zoo it's not too big not too little and I highly suggest if you're going to go to the Phoenix Zoo do not go in the summer I would plan to come in the winter where is more nice not so hot and you'll see a lot more animals than if you were to come in the summer it is 120° here in Arizona during the summer and in the winter it gets up to about 70° during the day so be a perfect time to come in the Winter.
Phoenix Zoo in the United States, also known as Phoenix Zoo. It is the largest non-profit zoo in the United States. It was founded by Robert Mattel in 1962. The zoo covers an area of 0.51 square kilometers and more than 1,300 species of animals live in it. The entire zoo is divided into four main areas: Arizona, Africa, Tropical and Children's. Another special part is the Stingray Bay area, which has a tank showing stingrays. Visitors can take a car to see the animals in the park, or walk to get close to the animals through a 4-kilometer hiking trail.
