Welcome to LodgingGuide's hospitality industry listings for the Tucson area.
Tucson has been a popular place to visit and live for at least the last 12,000 years, probably longer, but that is the earliest evidence of native American residence we have found so far. The present culture is an amalgam of ancient Indian, Spanish, Mexican and English American traditions. The dry climate of Tucson's desert, and the nearby forests of the Santa Catalina mountains rising more than a mile up from the ground give this area a wide enough variety to satisfy any climate whim. The lack of pollution and humidity here have a tonic effect on people with respiratory problems, make a perfect home for Biosphere 2 where experiments on living in a closed system are best performed in an environment with the least number of extraneous toxins and variables, and have made Tucson perfect for astronomical observation. The Kitt Peak National Observatory in Tucson, open to the public, is world famous for its discovery of dark matter in the study of the rotation curves of spiral galaxies. The local government is committed to maintaining the environmental quality of life here, even in the face of a rapidly growing population seeking a cleaner area in which to live and visit.
