"Voted the Most Beautiful Place in America" Sedona by ClariceStarling

Sedona Travel Guide: 870 reviews and 2,025 photos

According to USA Weekend magazine, Sedona was voted The Most Beautiful Place in America. Although there are many beautiful places in the United States, few would argue that Sedona is among the top. In addition to its unique natural beauty, Sedona offers boundless opportunities for activities such as hiking, mountain biking and photography. It boasts numerous accomodations from upscale resorts and spas to bed and breakfasts and creekside cabins. It is considered a spiritual mecca, one of few places to house numerous vortexes, or special energy sites. Sedona is the perfect site for many different types of vacations - a luxurious spa getaway where you can be pampered at an upscale resort, a romantic rendezvous where you can take a hot-air balloon ride over the red rocks, an active adventure where you can hike or mountain bike through the canyons or a spiritual retreat where you can practice tai chi at a vortex site.

For some reason, I didn't take any photos when I visited Sedona. Your pictures are wonderful, and remind me of how beautiful the area is. Thanks.
