City overview
Phoenix is the sunbaked capital of Arizona: desert mountains you can hike before breakfast, the Heard and Phoenix Art Museum, spring baseball and golf, and an easy base for Sedona and the Grand Canyon. The city has one of the Southwest's most established Orthodox communities, concentrated in North Central Phoenix along 7th Street, with several shuls, a community eruv, a local kashrut Vaad and a cluster of kosher restaurants, bakeries and markets. Chabad runs centres across the city, and Phoenix is also home to a large Bukharian Jewish community with its own synagogues.
