2. Boyce Thompson Arboretum State Park

Arizona is the home of many beautiful distinct parks, but what separates this one from any other is that it contains the oldest and largest botanical garden in the state of Arizona.

3. Central Park

Okay, so we all know Central Park was going to have to make the cut as the top 5. This is a photo I took back in December before snow covered it up entirely. However, you can see fall slowly transitioning into winter by the stripped trees and leaves on the ground.
