"See the Colorado River" Go out of the city and into the state of Arizona Tip by KazigluBey

Another peaceful and beautiful road to drive in Arizona is State Highway 89 in Northern Arizona. If you are a person who enjoys wide open spaces with little traffic and sights to see you will enjoy this one! As the Colorado River which runs through the Grande Canyon cuts a winding path through this area there is once again no shortage of amazing land formations with incredible breath-taking views of the living desert. There are also many National Forests and Parks in the Area to see. Be sure to stop at the rest area near the bridge over river, the local Indians set up shop here and sell their Native American handmade jewlery and crafts. The jewlery is mostly silver and turquoise (a stone very sacred to the Indians of this area) and is fashioned in a lovely magical fashion! Prices are very reasonable as I have seen peices of much lower quality selling for much higher prices in other parts of America. Of course before buying jewlery anywhere it is best for one to educate ones self as to not pay to much. Also, keep in mind that in most cases the prices shown are negotiable. Even, if not in the market to buy anything you may enjoy striking up a conversation with the Indians, they are a very friendly and a wonderful people and can tell you many things about the locale from a Native American perspective! Have fun!
