reasons and visit the locations where our ancestors left their mark.
Located between Cottonwood and Clarkdale is Tuzigoot National Monument
which was home to the ancient Sinagua Indians for more than 300 years.
Tuzigoot serves as unique attraction by allowing visitors to browse
through numerous historical exhibits and to wander through the stone
walls of the former Sinaqua living quarters.
If Native American culture interests you, don’t miss Montezuma’s
Castle National Monument where Sinagua Indians thrived some 800 years
ago and made their home high in the cliff walls. Much of the
5-story, 20-room adobe structure remains intact today, rising 100 feet
from ground level.
Visitors may also experience the amenities of a modern tribe, the
Yavapai Apache Nation. The tribe’s biggest attraction is Cliff
Castle Casino, where visitors try their luck on slot machines,
blackjack, or poker. If gambling isn’t your thing, Cliff Castle
offers bowling, live music, three restaurants, arcade and Kids Quest
with more than 5,000 sq feet of supervised games for kids. Within the complex is the Stargazer Pavilion, an outdoor amphitheater,
where the Annual Winter Star Powwow and other Native American activities
are held.
