Between the cities of Tucson and Phoenix and not too terribly far north of the United States-Mexico border, is the town of Red Rock, Arizona. With its central location in between two major cities, as well as its easy access to so much of the wilds of the Arizonan deserts, the town of Red Rock is a great stop along a journey through the Southwestern United States. You can enjoy the bright colors of the desert and various surrounding sandstone, the stunning blue of the sky, and even the vibrancy of two major cities all without having to drive more than an hour and a half. With its central location, you will be able to get a strong sense of understanding of why people venture out to the desert when they want to escape from reality.
