Yes...Sedona. Be sure to visit the Red Rock Chapel. I recommend a mid-week trip otherwise it gets a bit crowded around the area. From there it is not a bad trip to Flagstaff (nice pine forests and high peaks), Monument Valley, painted desert and not to far away in New Mexico is a dormant volcano and an ice cave that is awesome. Don't forget to stop in some places in Indian Country for a flavor of the Native American culture. Jewelery is very reasonably priced, and hand crafted. There is so much to see in old AZ that a single trip cannot suffice. There is just about every kind of terrain imaginable from the sand dunes around Yuma to the high peaks, to the forests, to the old mining towns in the Southeast corner, and don't forget Tombstone-The town too tough to die. I recommend a book "Arizona for Dummies" as a good starting point for investigation. Another is "Arizona Off the Beaten Path". Phooeynix is just an eastern city plopped down in a desert and just too big for my tastes so I would not recommend it. Tucson is a bit different, being smaller (but growing), less "sophisticated", more multi-cultural. Right outside the City is the Pima Air Museum and also San Xavier Mission, an old mission that is being lovingly restored by the tribe upon whose land it resides.

Of course, I am a bit biased when it comes to my home state.
