Yuma Townsite is the historic heartbeat of Yuma, where century-old storefronts meet creative studios, cafés, and event spaces along walkable blocks near the Colorado River. Weekends often revolve around heritage and the outdoors: explore the storied cells at the Yuma Territorial Prison State Historic Park, then stroll to the riverfront’s museums and trails at the Colorado River State Historic Park. Locals enjoy easy access to festivals, gallery shows, and riverfront parks, all set against brilliant desert skies and colorful sunsets.
