Arizona Town Named 'Most Charming Small Town' In The Entire State

Arizona is filled with stunning small towns across the state, destinations that offer a quiet beauty by letting the natural scenery, friendly atmosphere and unique attractions shine bright enough to draw you in and experience something you may not get in a bigger, bustling city.

According to a list compiled by AFAR , the "most charming small town" in all of Arizona is Jerome , praised for its "artfully repurposed" older mining town amid the beautiful red rock cliffs.

Here's what the site had to say about the most charming small town in the state:

"Sedona grabs the headlines with its red-rock scenery and exciting art scene, but Jerome shares the same colorful sunsets, and ups the ante with a fascinating ghost-town history 40 minutes away. Built on the side of Cleopatra Hill — for easy access to what was once the state's largest copper mine — the old buildings overlooking the Verde Valley now house hotels, restaurants, and galleries. The hilltop Jerome Grand Hotel repurposes the old hospital, while the century-old high school operates as a contemporary arts center. Over the past decade, the town has also grown a wine scene, which includes Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan 's Caduceus Cellars."
