Besh-Ba-Gowah Archaeological Park and Museum in Globe, Arizona

This archaeological park, with its partially reconstructed ancient pueblos, botanical garden, and museum, makes for a beautiful and relaxing day trip. 

Besh-Ba-Gowah was built by the Salado people between 1225 and 1400. A small but fascinating museum features local archeological findings and the history of the area and its people. There's also a small gift shop with some unique items.

Strolling along the pathways through the pueblo ruins takes you back in time. Add in the Arizona native plants and a sense of serenity and peace embrace you. If you visit during the blooming seasons, it will be truly spectacular.
