Arkansas

Arkansas is one of those states that has many different scenic attractions from lowland near the Mississippi River to the Ozark Mountains and everything in between. Arkansas is one of the most beautiful places to visit in Autumn as the leaves change colors and the air becomes a bit crisp in late September or early October.

Arkansas shares its border with six states, which are Missouri, Tennessee, Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, and Oklahoma. Arkansas offers all four seasons for visitors to enjoy with temperatures ranging from 23 degrees Fahrenheit to upper 90 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer months. Snow is seen in Arkansas of course, but the lower half of the state is more apt to experience ice storms as other neighboring states with some snow.

Arkansas offers many different activities the entire family can enjoy such as music festivals, waterfalls, art galleries, sporting events, quilt shops, golf, thoroughbred horse racing, drag racing, greyhound dog racing, the Hot Springs National Park, and various historical sights and state parks dot the countryside.
