Updated: Feb 2, 2021

Experience World Renowned Red Rock Formations


Sedona is one of Arizona's main attractions and it's not hard to see why. This desert town near Flagstaff is surrounded by red-rock buttes, steep canyon walls and pine forests. It’s noted for its mild climate and vibrant arts community, making Sedona a truly unique vacation spot.


Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village

Tlaquepaque is one of the best things to do in Sedona. By the banks of beautiful Oak Creek in Sedona, Tlaquepaque offers an eclectic Southwest shopping experience. The architecture is lovely and resembles a traditional Mexican village with vine covered stucco walls, cobble-stoned walkways and magnificent arched entryways. Discover paintings, weavings, and blown glass creations in art galleries and unique shops within this artist community.


Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park


A short trek up winding trails surrounded by red rock country, you can discover the 36 foot Amitabha Stupa for prayer, meditation, healing, and the experience of peace in a sacred oasis. The Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park sits at the base of Thunder Mountain, the land is deemed holy by native people and spans 14 serene acres.

This striking 36-foot enlightenment stupa gets its name from Buddha Amitabha, the Buddha of Limitless Light. There is a bronze image of this Buddha in the faceplate of the stupa. The stupa is one of the oldest forms of sacred architecture on earth, dating back to the time of the Buddha, 2600 years ago. This beacon of blessings is filled with hundreds of prayers for peace, sacred relics and ritual offerings.


Javelina Cantina


Enjoy authentic Mexican cuisine and margaritas with views of Sedona’s most spectacular red rock formations right from the patio of Javelina Cantina. The chimichanga with beef machaca is sure to rock your tastebuds! It is both fresh and filling. This is the place to enjoy the perfect meal after a hike around one of Sedona’s epic trails.


Downtown Sedona

This downtown is enchanting and was strategically placed with the red rocks as its breathtaking backdrop. Take in the expansive views as you explore the quaint shops, restaurants, and also tourist attractions such as the famous Pink Jeep Tours. The downtown is truly a gem with its magical art and statues that decorate the streets.
