Williams AZ
The
city of Williams is located a few miles west of Flagstaff along Historic Route
66 and Interstate 40. The settlement got
its moniker from an old mountain man and trader, William “Old Bill” Williams. He spent lots of time in the region setting
traps and hunting. Williams was the
final holdout to have the bypass constructed and therefore retiring Route 66
from being used. Interstate 40 was the
new route to take.
Williams
may be a small city, but it provides lots to do for those visiting and living
there. You have many choices for places
to stay, eat and shop. It is where the
Southwest Chief Amtrak train route travels through and the place to hop the
Grand Canyon Railway which takes people to Grand Canyon Village. At Christmas time, the train will take you to
Santa Claus’ Village.
