The mission San Xavier del Bac is one of the first missions to be established in what was the northern area of New Spain. It is being rebuilt by both the current parish and local and state grants. The outside carvings and inside sculptures and artwork are being
painstakingly restored. The artisans are doing a beautiful job.
Old Tucson Studios has been shooting movies and TV shows for a long time. "How the West Was Won", "Wagon Train", "Little House on the Prarie", numerous John Wayne and Clint Eastwood epics were done here, and many more. Each day they put on a western "shootout" loosely based on the TV show "Wild, Wild, West."
Tombstone is located southwest of Tucson, and is of course renowned for the "Shootout at the OK Corral" A reenactment is done daily, including the Earp brothers, Doc Halliday and the bad guys.
