Old Tucson, ten miles west of downtown next to Saguaro National Park, is a working Western film set and theme park rolled into one. Saloons, dust streets, gallows and church facades that have featured in more Western films and TV shows than any other studio in America. Cowboy gunfight reenactments run a few times a day, and you can ride a stagecoach or a vintage train around the grounds.
It is a touristy, kitschy place and a long-standing Tucson institution — most enjoyable if you arrive with kids or genuinely care about old Westerns. Check opening hours and seasonal schedule in advance — the park closes during the hottest months.
