About Phoenix

Phoenix is the capital of Arizona and a major city of the American Southwest. Its hot desert climate makes it a popular winter escape, a hub for golf and spring-training baseball, and an increasingly important centre for technology and semiconductor manufacturing.

Phoenix uses Mountain Standard Time, UTC-7, all year: most of Arizona does not observe daylight saving time, partly because extra evening sunshine is unwelcome in the summer heat. As a result, Phoenix matches Denver in winter but lines up with Los Angeles in summer. The Navajo Nation in north-eastern Arizona does change its clocks.
