Written at the back of the postcard:
Add a little spice to your life - explore the zestful land of Arizona.

Arizona, one of the four corner states, located in the southwestern region of the United States. Arizona is the 48th and the last of the contiguous states admitted to the Union in 1912. It shares 389miles of international border with the Mexican states of Sonora and Baja California.

Arizona is home to the Grand Canyon, one of the 7 natural wonders, and to the most well-preserved meteorite impact sites in the world known as the Barringer meteorite crater.

The colorful chili peppers, abundantly growing in the Southwest of the United States, is an iconic symbol that represents the warmth and friendliness of the people there. People hang clusters of chili peppers as a welcome to their Southwest homes.
