Sedona, Arizona
The city of Sedona, one of Arizona's premier tourism, recreation, resort, retirement and art centers, was incorporated in 1988. Historically, it was a rural ranching community located far off the beaten path, but its unsurpassed natural beauty became nationally known through the motion picture industry. Today, commercials and television shows still are filmed in the unsettled areas surrounding this city, which annually attracts more than 4 million tourists from around the world.
Some people visit Sedona for the breathtaking beauty that fills the senses and feeds the soul. Some visit Sedona to shop in the delightfully eclectic shops and galleries. Many others visit Sedona to savor the flavors and scents of our restaurants, to be pampered in a world-class resort or stay in a log cabin while sampling the diverse cultural events all year long.
The splendor of Sedona begins as you approach along the highway and revel in your first views of the towering red rock monoliths that surround this quaint city. As you draw closer, these natural sculptures circle you, wrapping you in a crimson embrace. It is this first encounter with the red rocks of Sedona that has enchanted visitors for generations.
