Containing the old U.S. Army Quartermaster Depot and the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area, this park has a mix of full on history and fun exhibits for children. It is home to some of Arizona’s oldest buildings, where you can soak up information and follow the history of the Colorado River and it’s crucial crossing in Yuma in the time of the Old West. You can also learn about the Yuma project, which set out to irrigate a vast area of land in Yuma County and California, through the use of dams, canals, siphons, power plants and drains, to enable year-round farming.

No longer in operation, Yuma Territorial Prison is now a state historical park with quite the reputation. It was strategically built (by its very own pioneering prisoners) on the banks of the Colorado as an additional safety measure against common jailbreaks of the time. The prison cemetery severe as a chilling reminder of life in the Old South West. Don’t forget to snap your own mugshot before leaving using the original mirror that created a simultaneous front and side profile in one photo.
