It was historic and looked that way. In other words it was authentic and a bit run down - kind of like Jerome and Bisby. Its on the way to Rosevelt Lake and the Apache Trail which is something to behold.

This was our first visit to Globe and the surrounding area. Its a charming mix of history, mining, rustic and contemporary. Between nearby Superior, Miami, Claypool and Globe, there is plenty of available food and shopping. An absolute must-see while in Globe is the Besh-Ba-Gowah Archaeological Park and Museum. It was once home to the Salado people. Watch an interesting 12 minute orientation video about the history of the location, then into the adjacent gift shop and museum which houses an amazing collection of artifacts excavated from the site. The archaeological site itself is just steps away. Restrooms are available and entry is adults $5, Seniors $4, kids under 12 free.

I go to Globe often for work so I don't like go around seeing what to do for fun or anything like that. I do know some things and that is the food in the little restaurants they have are good. The newest (probably only) sushi spot is great and also the owner also runs a pizza joint right next door to the sushi spot. The Mexican restaurants are pretty good and then your basics fast food is also present. Also just west of Globe is a town of Miami which you pass before going into Globe from the 60 has good Mexican places also and not far off the 60. Miami places to try The Burger House and Guayo's El Rey. Globe places to try El Rey, Irene's Real Mexican Food, La Casita East, Bloom (sushi) and Guayo's On The Trail.

A little hard to give experience with what's going on in the world right now, most stores are either closed or closed early. That ones that are open it was nice to be able to go in and look around. The scenery is beautiful.
