Montezuma Castle National Monument

Among the country’s foremost National Monuments, the Montezuma Castle National Monument boasts rich history and heritage. Carved out of a limestone cliff, this prehistoric site is a five-story dwelling. Comprising nearly twenty rooms, this marvelous structure is believed to have taken close to three centuries to complete. Inhabited hundreds of years ago, much of the building is still intact. Apart from gazing at the exquisite site in sheer wonderment, you can visit the museum near the visitor center, which chronicles the stirring history of the region. At the base of the cliffs lies a splendid sycamore grove, which also welcomes visitors for leisurely wanderings.

Montezuma Well

Formed as a result of underground springs, the Montezuma Well is a limestone sinkhole found near Montezuma's Castle. Formerly a large underground cavern, this natural well is surrounded by soaring Indian cliff dwellings. Historically, the site has served as a refuge for a host of communities, right from prehistoric groups to modern-age farmers. Given the high concentrations of carbon dioxide, arsenic, calcium and other chemicals, the well is home to extremely rare flora and fauna. Picturesque, historic and blessed with nature’s rarest gifts, the stunning Montezuma Well merits a visit by outdoor enthusiasts, nature lovers and photographers alike.

Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park

Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park rests among a thick cover of pine and juniper trees, giving out a peaceful vibe. The sacred shrine is known to have existed for 2600 years, which makes it even more intriguing. Stupas are very sacred to the Buddhist culture, as they are meant to have the living essence of the Buddha himself. This sacred place is surrounded by scenic hillocks, featuring a striking crimson, that truly bring out the earthy colors of the Stupa. On entering the shrine, one can notice an uncanny peace overpowering their body, creating a gentle hum of solace and serenity; making this tranquil spot a must visit.

Chapel of the Holy Cross

Designed by a Frank Lloyd Wright student, Marguerite Brunswig Staude, the chapel was built in 1956 and rises 200 feet from the ground between two large red rock formations. One of the most distinctive features is a 90-foot cross, which can be seen from the ground along State Route 179. A massive stained glass window turns the chapel's interior into a kaleidoscope of color at certain times of the day. No services are held here, but it provides an ideal setting for spiritual reflection and prayer as well as incredible views of the Red Rocks. Admission is free, but donations are appreciated.

Sedona Heritage Museum

This local museum utilizes the old farmstead of the Jordan family to educate visitors about the heritage of greater Sedona. A trio of landmark buildings form the main exhibits of the museum, whereas visitors can also peruse various antique farming implements and vintage orchard equipment within the space. You can also spot a replica of a tent house and some artifacts related to Sedona's early pioneer history. Surrounded by the region's signature crimson-rock landscape, the museum complex is not only a wonderful place to learn more about the area's history, but also take in the splendid sights.
