Field guide · Phoenix
Botanic Garden with an AC Escape Hatch
Walk the botanic garden's paths, but build in a cool-down stop inside the gift shop so the heat doesn't get the better of you.
The botanic garden gives you real greenery and walking paths, but with today's heat you'll want a mid-outing air-conditioned break. Plan to walk the shadier sections first, duck into the gift shop to cool off and hydrate, then decide if you have another loop in you.
