Whether it is Valentine's Day, your anniversary, or, better yet,
just a day when you want to let someone know how special they are,
there are a variety of places to go in town for a romantic experience.
You can spend a bunch of money, or not. It's up to you. Here are five
more romantic spots to go in the Phoenix area:
Holding
Hands While You Hike
A romantic outing doesn't always have to involve dining and a huge
expense. How about a lovely hike to a spectacular view of the Valley?
Put on your hiking shoes, sneak some special snacks and a bit of
champagne in your backpack, and hike up to the Summit of Squaw Peak
and watch the sunrise or sunset, whichever you prefer!
Kiss on Top of a Rock
Even though the web site for the Buttes resort has little information
about it, the Top of the Rock is a fine restaurant with a great
view, and will please for any very special occasion. This restaurant
has been voted the best romantic restaurant in the valley, and the
best place to kiss (in public). As a matter of fact, on the evening
of our wedding, Top of the Rock was our choice for a wedding day
wonderful meal.
Picnic at the Mall
Not the shopping mall, silly! Scottsdale Mall. Pack a picnic basket
and enjoy a walk and lunch at the park-like setting among the statues
and fountains and flowers. Stop in and peruse the art exhibits at
the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art. Scottsdale Mall is located
in downtown Scottsdale, and you can call (480) 994-ARTS for more
information.
T. Cook's
Located at the Royal Palms Hotel and Casitas in east Phoenix. They
serve Mediterranean food in the romantic setting of a Spanish Colonial
style mansion. You can expect the meal to be pricey, but the food
and ambience at T. Cook's ooze romance.
Desert Botanical Gardens
Take a slow stroll through the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix
and enjoy the desert flora and fauna on display there. When you
are a bit tired of walking, find a bench in a scenic area and profess
your love for one another. On weekends you can enjoy musical entertainment
in the gardens, too.
