In downtown Tempe right near campus is the Tempe Beach Park, where you can often catch great festivals, concerts, or runs that take place at the lake nearby.

4. Hike the Hayden Butte Preserve

Another short hike practically on the Arizona State University Tempe campus, near the Sun Devil Stadium.

Easily one of the nicest sights around downtown Phoenix and is very historic.
