Stay with Choice Hotels in Winslow, AZ to enjoy your getaway to Arizona’s historic Navajo County
The city of Winslow was named after the President of St. Louis and San Francisco Rail Road, Edward F. Winslow. One of the greatest historic examples of this city is Lorenzo Hubbell Trading Post, once the premier trading post company of the American southwest territories. It is now the city’s Visitor Center and Chamber of Commerce but still retains the great historic architecture from when the city was founded. You’ll find historic displays and racks of information about the city making it a great first stop as you start your trip. As you make your way through downtown with brochures and maps from the Visitor Center in hand, you’ll probably cross the ”Standin’ on the Corner” Park, made famous by a hit song by a popular band in the early 1970s. You can stand in this corner for yourself to take advantage of the photo opportunity.
Either find the same corner or stand next to the park’s life-sized bronze of a guitar carrying singer and a mural that depicts the unforgettable line from the song that made this sight a tourist destination. Visitors also come to soak in the beautiful red mountains of Arizona and these hills are just as prominent in Winslow. Learn about the Native American history of the area while enjoying the scenic vistas by visiting Homolovi State Park, just three miles northeast of downtown. You can tour the ancient ruins of pueblos to get insight into the cultural perspectives and history of the Hopi Tribe. These pueblos were built by ancestors of the Hopi people between 1260 and 1460 A.D. The nearby McHood Park and Clear Creek also has places to soak up the Arizona outdoors by swimming, fishing, hiking, picnicking, canoeing and more. You’ll be able to do it all and still have a place to relax at the end of the day when you book with Choice Hotels in Winslow, AZ. Start your adventure by booking online today!
