A nice half day visit to Tumacacori National Historic Park. About an hours drive south of Tucson. Ruins of 3 mission churches (foundations only of two) and museum provide history of the area. Home to Spanish priests, settlers and some O'Odham. The missions flourished from the late 1600's to mid 1800's.
