Arizona is a quirky place. Whether it's due to our Wild West history, unusual weather or unique residents, there are a lot of places that could only exist in Arizona.

World Atlas, a geography website, recently named historic mining community Bisbee the quirkiest town in Arizona, taking the title largely for its history, retro vibe and unusual events.

Old Bisbee holds a special charm once the sun goes down.

But Arizona is home to a lot more than one quirky city. In that spirit, World Atlas named six other eclectic towns you must visit around the Grand Canyon State.

Here are the towns that made the list and all the eccentricities you can see when you visit.

Jerome

The "wickedest town in the West" makes a great case for its title as one of the quirkiest cities in Arizona. Nestled upon the side of a mountain, you can take in Jerome by learning about its history, including the violence and tragedy that plagued it.

You can also check out its artsy shops, like the world's largest kaleidoscope store Nellie Bly Kaledioscopes or a glass blowing studio.

Bisbee

Bisbee was once the largest town in Arizona with mines that produced 8 billion pounds of copper over a century. These days the town is a lot smaller and quieter, with mine carts transporting tourists into the once bustling caverns.

These days, you can tour the historic downtown, visit Lowell or travel deep into the earth on a mine tour. You can also celebrate turkey vultures at an unusual annual event.

Winslow

The Eagles put Winslow on the map with their 1970s hit "Take It Easy." Though decades have passed, tourists can visit Standin’ on the Corner Park to pay homage to songwriters Glen Frey and Jackson Browne.

While you're in town, visit Meteor Crater, Homolovi State Park and La Posada Hotel.

Tombstone

You should check out the Bird Cage Theater to see the historic bullet holes, visit the Boothill Graveyard to read the macabre headstones and tour the Good Enough Mine, according to World Atlas. The site also recommends visiting in October during the town's Helldorado Days.

Oracle

Just north of Tucson, Oracle has something no other town does — Biosphere 2. The facility designed to be a closed ecological system intended to simulate different ecosystems and provide insights into how they function. Visitors can tour a rainforest, ocean and savannah without having to leave the state.

World Atlas also recommends checking out the Acadia Ranch Museum, which was once a tuberculosis sanitorium and post office, and Peppersauce Cave.

Arcosanti

Arcosanti is an artist collective created by Italian-born architect Paolo Soleri in 1970. The community about an hour north of Phoenix is a remarkable feat of architecture. It's off the beaten path, and the signs are easy to miss. And the buildings were designed with the environment in mind, so they blend in perfectly.

World Atlas recommends touring the bronze bell foundry, solar towers and concrete domes. You can also plan to stay overnight to take in the dark skies and home-grown meals.

Clarkdale

Clarkdale may not be the most widely known town in the Verde Valley, but it certainly does have character. The town was designed as an upscale town for Jerome miners and their families with underground sewers and utilities and paved streets.

These days, visitors can catch the Verde Canyon Railroad, enjoy the Verde River and explore Tuzigoot National Monument.
