Arts and cultureEdit
The town has the Hualapai Lodge, a motel and a small grocery market with fuel. It is an access point to Hualapai Hilltop, Template:Convert to the northeast, which is the trailhead from which hikers descend an Template:Convert trail, with a drop of Template:Convert, to the town of Supai,<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> from which Havasu Falls and other waterfalls can be visited.
Peach Springs is located on the route of the former Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (now the BNSF Railway) and on historic US Route 66. Route 66 brought large numbers of cross-country travellers through the town until Interstate 40 was opened Template:Convert to the south in 1978. I-40 diverges from Route 66 at Seligman Template:Convert to the east, and the two roads do not meet again until Kingman Template:Convert to the west. As no connecting roads join the two highways at Peach Springs, the town went from being on the beaten path to being more than thirty miles from the new main road overnight. I-40 shortened the highway distance from Kingman to Seligman by Template:Convert at the expense of turning villages like Truxton, Valentine and Hackberry into overnight ghost towns. Peach Springs survived as the administrative base of the Hualapai tribe but suffered irreparable economic damage.
The John Osterman Shell Station, built by a Swedish immigrant in 1929, closed soon after the turn of the millennium. In 2007, the Hualapai Tribe received a $28,000 federal matching grant to rehabilitate the building,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> which has yet to re-open but which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
In popular cultureEdit
Peach Springs served as one of the inspirations for the fictional town of Radiator Springs in the Disney-Pixar movie "Cars." The creators of the movie took a research trip along Route 66, visiting many small towns and drawing inspiration from their unique character and charm.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
