Photo by Zoie Clift

Arizona's dry, tan desert and buildings offer a unique look that is best enjoyed through photos from the likes of Zoie Clift, a travel writer and photographer who visited and captured the scenes and moods of this Southwestern US state.

When visiting, prepare for extreme heat during the summer, and mild to cool temperatures in the winter. When booking hotels, the rates tend to go down during the summer months but at most hotels you'll find swimming pools are quite popular.
