The Mission

San Xavier del Bac, one of the best preserved missions in the southwest.

About this place:

One of America's best preserved and notable missions is a little further north, a few miles south of Tucson - the Mission San Xavier del Bac. This is still an active parish for the Tucson Diocese, so go inside to sit and watch people shuffling through. Outside the mission is a food and craft market run by the Tohono O'odam tribe. Be sure to try the Indian Frybread, a delicious piece of fried dough topped with chillies or honey.
