Flagstaff Arizona is a crossroads for tourism in Northern Arizona. Centrally located along Route 66, Flagstaff is also only a short drive from the best golf in the region. Although there is only one public golf course in Flagstaff, courses such as the Palm Valley Palms Course in nearby Goodyear, Arizona are convenient to visitors to Flagstaff. When you're not on the course, Flagstaff offers a variety of dining options, including a wide choice of Chinese restaurants.
