Tucson is located in the Grand Canyon State and the sate flower is the Saguaro bloom. These flowers bloom on the Saguaro cactus each year during the months of May and June. It’s easy to find turquoise for sell in the city of Tucson as it is the state gem!

Tucson is home to one of the nation’s largest Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) festivals. During All Souls Procession Weekend, gatherers, who are often dressed in macabre costumes, simultaneously mourn and celebrate the dead.
