5- Goldfield Ghost Town: right across the Superstition Mountains is the Goldfield Ghost Town reachable within a 1.5 hour ride from Phoenix. A town that offers travelers a chance to visit an authentic ghost town that has an underground mine, a train ride, a main street with many shops, historic buildings, a church, the Goldfield Superstition Museum. If you are lucky, you will witness an old west gunfight performed by famous Goldfield Gunfighters. When you finish touring the town, enjoy a beer and a burger at their only restaurant and meet real cowboys who come to have lunch with their horses and not cars. Yes, this is still commonplace in some places in the Wild West!
