How is Phoenix Arizona for visiting?

I've been think about a vacation in Phoenix for the weekend at the end of March of 2010.I've never been there and the reason why I ask is because I don't hear much about it like popular cities like L.A Miami,New York, Las Vegas etc. Tell me about general things like weather,the best malls what to look for in the city and whatever else you may want to add.How is Phoenix Arizona for visiting?
You didn't mention your age group. We have great museums like the Heard Museum downtown which showcases southwestern art. There are many other tourist attractions here that would be of interest to you. We are the 5th largest city in the US and have the traffic to prove it. The best malls depend upon what you're looking for but I'd recommend Arrowhead Mall and on the more expensive side there is Scottsdale Fashion Square. Tempe's Mill Avenue attracts the college crowd. Scottsdale attracts the young and rich. There are a few casinos on the Indian reservations. The Phoenix metropolitan area is a very popular tourist city and is full of "snow birds" every winter filling up our numerous luxury resorts. We have pro sports teams and attract all the big name entertainers. If you're coming for a weekend you won't have time to take side trips to the Grand Canyon or Sedona but plan on those for future trips. You'll need a car in Phoenix. Our public transportation system exists but doesn't go everywhere. We are located in the valley of the sun surrounded by mountains. The weather should be nice in March.
well its alright i have lived in the phoenix metropolitan area for 6 years and it sure is more exciting than Nebraska. I mean you can go look at the cardinals stadium or chase field, you can go watch a suns game at US Airways Arena. You can go party on Mill Ave in Tempe (a suburb of phoenix) or go hike a mountain. The best mall i would have to say is Scottsdale Fashion Square, it has the best stores like Armani Exchange, Christian Audigier, True Religion Jeans, etc. Other good malls would be Chandler Fashion Center and Arizona Mills Mall. The weather is very warm, March would be around the 80's or 90's so its very nice in March.How is Phoenix Arizona for visiting?
Eh, Phoenix is okay. You might enjoy shopping there, I'm not sure about specific malls. If you're going to Arizona, you probably want to go to SEDONA. It's really beautiful there with all the red rocks and mountains. My favorite part was the Pink Jeep Tour- they drive you up the rocks and it's really fun...just don't go if you have back problems because it's a pretty rough ride and can be scary.
