I love Phoenix for many reasons! I have grown up in the Phoenix area, so I have been fortunate enough to experience many of the things that Phoenix has to offer. One of the main reasons that Phoenix is so great is its culture and attractions. Phoenix has attractions that are sure to please any visitor or resident…there is never a dull moment. For example, many cities hold community events which provide entertainment for the whole family. Also there is an exciting nightlife in nearly every city which is sure to please any party goers! Here are some of the areas and attractions that are awesome in Phoenix. The following posts include “My Top 5 Nightspots” and “My Top 10 Valley Attractions”.

Mill Avenue

Mill Avenue- Mill avenue is a great place to spend the weekend as there are numerous bars and restaurants along one strip. Mill is a popular place for Arizona State Students as it is next to the university. I LOVE MILL because you can have dinner with your friends and do all the bar hopping that you want. What nice about mill is that all the bars are next to one another so if one place is too crowed or “not fun” you can hop to the next bar. Learn more at: http://www.millavenue.com/

This is a great nightlife spot, but can also be visited during the day for it’s boutiques and galleries. I LOVE OLD TOWN SCOTTSDALE because it is a fun time to get dressed up and have a fun night out with your friends.

Tempe Market Place

Tempe Market Place: The Tempe Market Place is a great place for nightlife. The Market Place has restaurants, shops, entertainment and bars. At night you can bar hop to each of the bars as they are located directly next to one another. I LOVE THE TEMPE MARKET PLACE because they have a stage where music groups perform concerts on weekend nights. It’s a nice addition when you sit out side at the bar and listen to the fun music!
