Peoria, Arizona should be a major travel destination for anyone looking to broaden his awareness of cultural and diversity issues. The Peoria Center for the Performing Arts holds numerous performances year round that are on par with many of the larger cities in the United States. There are also multiple festivals and events held throughout the year to promote the beauty of the diversity that is the American Southwest and the richness of Peoria and her surrounding areas.

Lake Pleasant is also nearby and offered us multiple chances for cooling off in the warm desert sun. Sailing and fishing are quite popular, as are the nightly dinner cruises which added a little romance to our vacation.
