Return to an earlier time when you visit Sahuaro Ranch Park, a lovely historic park built in the 1890s. Seven original buildings set on 16-acres are home to rabbits, chickens and peacocks. Originally a citrus farm founded by William Henry Bartlett, the ranch is now a Glendale City Park. Tour the main house and view exhibits of years past. The park is open to visitors daily.

Located in the heart of downtown Glendale, this picture-perfect park looks like it popped out of an ad for Family Life. There's an amphitheater nearby for community concerts and lots of local events are held here. You'll find the Front Porch Festival here in September, Glendale Glitters through the holidays and Saturdays from October through May find the Market at Murphy Park. Local artists and craftsmen converge at the Market displaying their handiwork.
