Saguaro National Park, Arizona

Saguaro National Park, Arizona


DescriptionEnormous cacti, silhouetted by the setting sun, for most of us the Giant Sauraro is the universal symbol of the American West. And yet, these majestic plants are only found in a small portion of the United States. Saguaro National Park protects some of the most impressive forests of these sub-tropical giants, on the edge of the modern City of Tucson.
