Ruine of 3 or 4 thousand years old city (an archeological site) how was your experience? Did you feel the past life of those dwellers? I am going to visit Lothal near to my city and i am excited! It becomes even interesting when your friend is with you and with a spirit to feel the past life of a civilization.
I would like to see ruins, but I can't leave the ruin of my life.

Arizona and New Mexico are peppered with ancient city sites. A map of Tempe shows thousands of irrigation ditches of unknown age. The city is built amongst them. Roads are dotted with tourist attractions where you can walk among stone houses built into cliffs thousands of years ago. Casa Grande is one of the more famous, and younger of them.
That is south of Phoenix. Go north and you run into Tutzigoot.
Driving through Arizona and adjoining parts of New Mexico and California, you see hundreds of roadside crosses. Most people assume that somebody died in a wreck there, but that is obviously not the case. All of them are in places where it would be difficult to wreck a car, and some appear along new roads as soon as they are open. They might be made of anything. They used to be all bare wood, but many are made of PVC pipes, painted lumber, or even wrought iron. Some have plastic flowers, toys, or other types of decorations. This custom is at least 1200 years old. Arizona used to be patrolled by Apache Indians, who always had a reputation for murdering people just to stay in practice. After an attack, survivors would pile stones to commemorate the disaster, changed to crosses when the church converted the people, and every year the families would return to the place to clean it up, tell the old stories, and remember their loved ones.
