Scottsdale, Arizona, is the state's sixth-largest city. It is bordered by Phoenix and Paradise Valley to the west, and Tempe to the south. This upscale tourist destination draws visitors to its premier shopping, luxurious resort spas, world-class golf courses, fine art galleries, trendy night spots, and sunny, warm weather. Located in the Salt River Valley in the Sonoran Desert, Scottsdale serves as a winter home to thousands of wealthy tourists.

Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate the city's pristine rivers, majestic mountains, mammoth boulders, towering saguaros, and desert trails. Some of Scottsdale's most popular attractions include Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin West, McDowell Sonoran Conservancy, Desert Botanical Garden, Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, and Old Town Scottsdale.
