Ideally situated on the banks of the Little Colorado
River, Holbrook is the door to the Petrified Forest National Park. This is
Arizona high plateau country. Holbrook is over 5,000 feet in elevation and, to
the north, are the Hopi and Navajo Indian reservations. Much of the
activity in Holbrook is centered in Native American culture, e.g., the
"Gathering of Eagles" Native American art show in mid-July.
To the north, in the reservations, is the rugged plateau country with the
famous prehistoric cliff-dwellings, i.e., Canyon de Chelly. Situated on
Navajo and Hopi Reservation lands near the community of Chinle, Arizona,
this offers you not only the opportunity to tour these historic landmarks
but to view Native American ceremonial dances and other tribal events.
Also on display are many Native American arts and crafts, many of which
are available for purchase.
