15 Things to do in Tempe, Arizona

Tempe, Arizona is home to Arizona State University and it is a fun college town with a bunch of places to explore. Amie and I got a chance to spend 3 days there and we loved being able to try some of the area's hikes, restaurants and unique attractions like axe throwing and a rage room. Check out this video for all of our favorite spots and let us know what we left off in the comments.

I miss Tempe. Best 2 years of my life I spent here. ASU gave the opportunity to meet some of the best people from around the world. I would love to revist Tempe any given day

I lived in Tempe back in the late 80's,it blows my mind to see how its grown, i really need to go back for a vacation,lol

[@quietmon]

Where are you now? Do you ever miss it?

[@adampositron6871]

I lived in Tempe for two years and now live in Scottsdale. I highly recommend MedFresh Turkish Restaurant on Mill Avenue between 4th and 5th streets in the heart of downtown Tempe. They have an awesome chicken kabob and many other great Turkish dishes and more. Don't forget the to ask for roasted hot pepper and the garlic sauce to enhance your dining experience. The take a walk around downtown Tempe afterward and even a hike around - or up - Hayden Butte. You can see it from the restaurant. It's right freaking there! Enjoy!

And many of us remember when Tempe town lake was literally just dirt and the majority of the Phoenix/Tempe homeless population spread to other areas

[@julieh3327]

Thanks for sharing! We’ll have to add these to a bucket list.

Thanks for the great video. Much appreciate it. I’m heading to Tempe for the Ironman Arizona triathlon this next November in 2022. This definitely will help as I’ve never been to that town.

[@collyhughes5144]

Wow, has this changed since I lived there about 50 years ago! Wonderful video and long to return to experience it once again!

[@ThroughMyLens]

Thanks for watching! It is always crazy to see how much places change over the years but it is a really fun town to explore now as well

[@yakovmikolov317]

I live in Tempe and would love to see what it was like 50 years ago

[@collyhughes5144]

@@yakovmikolov317 Sorry but life is to be lived in the present not the past....the past is gone forever, we can learn from it but that's about it. Enjoy what you now have, protect it from those who want to destroy it.

[@yakovmikolov317]

Colly Hughes lol of course life is to be lived in the present. When I said I would love to see what Tempe was like 50 years ago I meant through pictures or old recordings, maybe listen to stories from old timers. I wasn’t saying I want to go back to that time. I prefer my modern conveniences.

[@collyhughes5144]

@@yakovmikolov317 Modern conveniences is a very good thing! Have you checked to see if they have a museum....often have just what you are looking for.

[@rebeccacashero2776]

I love your videos and watch them all the time. Since you are doing a series on Arizona, can you do one on Bisbee, AZ? It one of my partner's favorite towns in Arizona and I would love to learn/see more about Bisbee. I haven't found a KZbin video on Bisbee that really provides a nice overview of the area. I think you two would make a great Bisbee trip video.

[@ThroughMyLens]

Thanks for the suggestion, I will have to add it to the list for next time I am in that area of Arizona!

Downtown Tempe is primarily chain restaurants that cater to college students. Nothing truly unique or special imo. There are some good spots scattered throughout the city, but you gotta search for them.

Homosexuals are not reprobates! You better ask God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost to show you if that is true! Share this message to Faithful Word Baptist Church in Tempe, Arizona.
