If you haven't visited downtown Phoenix in a while, spend a cycling along the famous, century-old Murphy Bridle Path. Or stroll the sidewalks and browse the unique boutiques along the way. Then, satisfy your hunger by grabbing a slice at Pizzeria Bianco (supposedly the best pizza in America!) located in Historic Heritage Square. Find this and other hotspots on the Hubbuzz Neighborhood Map.
