Why Prescott is Arizona’s Secret Gem! #partner Arizona’s former capitol has so much to offer! With a vibrant food scene, tons of outdoor recreation opportunities, amazing local history detailing one of Arizona’s oldest cities, an energetic Western culture, and a host of activities for every age, Prescott is anything but boring! When you visit Prescott you step into the true west! From the 1800’s preserved buildings at the Sharlot Hall Museum to the world famous Whiskey Row, to the famed Courthouse Square you’re greeted by Arizona’s Western heritage at every turn. And, when you explore Prescott National Forest you see the area’s rich mining history and encounter the wilderness of the real Wild West. If you’re up for a true western adventure, then Prescott is the place to be. @experienceprescott @tripscout #experienceprescott #sponsored

We came from Phoenix for a Living History event and it was so worth the trip! Beautiful grounds with a Memorial Rose Garden honoring the towns influential women. Multiple pioneer buildings with Volunteers in character telling you about life during the era. We especially loved hearing a gentlemen explain to us in detail what it would have been like travelling on a horse drawn coach through the southwest. The printing press was super cool and they let my son print a newspaper page. Also the woman explaining medical practices of the day and showing different tools and their uses was very interesting and personable. We got there an hour after it started- so about 11 am, till the Event was over at 3. We should have come earlier because it was not long enough to see everything. Our kids were super interested in everything too. Absolutely will be back...

I love this museum. Besides hosting the original governor's mansion at it's site but spot, there is reconstructed Fort Misery, a school house, the Fremont house and Bashford house. Original buildings moved and preserved. This museum has a print shop with working presses. The museum volunteers dress in period clothing right down to their skivvies and deliver wonderful information with passion and excitement. There is also a larger , newer building that hosts some fabulous pieces of art. Well worth the visit. Try to visit when they are having demonstrations like candle making, corn husk dolls and talk to Bi...she is a wealth of information on...

Omg, this is a must see museum in Prescott, AZ. It's $15 adult admission, but, worth every penny! It is on 4 acres with beautiful landscaping between the historical buildings. Each building has a different theme regarding the history & artifacts of the evolution of Prescott. One is Travel, which has bicycles from the 1800's to an actual covered wagon. Another an original house exactly as it looked, with the household items displayed. I could go on & on. So, if you are lucky enough to be in Prescott, AZ, you should plan it as part of...
