Scottsdale Maps and Orientation
(Scottsdale, Arizona - AZ, USA)
Located on the southern side of central Arizona, the sunny city of Scottsdale stands within Maricopa County, where it is especially close to
Phoenix. In fact, Scottsdale actually resides within the Phoenix Metropolitan Area (the Valley of the Sun).
Also close by are the small towns and cities of Carefree, Fountain Hills,
Mesa, Paradise Valley and Tempe, while both the Phoenix Mountains Preserve and the Piestewa Peak Park can be found roughly 20 minutes to the northwest, next to the Tatum Canyon neighborhood.
Most tourists paying a visit to Scottsdale choose to take a stroll around the historic Old Town, where an assortment of shops and attractive buildings from the early 20th century await, along with plenty of eateries and galleries.
