Marvel at St. Francis Basilica
Named after the patron saint of Santa Fe, the Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi is a breathtaking Roman Catholic cathedral that looks like it’d be more at home in a European country than in the heart of the southwest. Built in 1869 as a way for parishioners to practice Catholic faith and build a supportive community, this basilica features a French Romanesque style with thick walls, barrel vaults, and round arches and doorways for a magnificent combination of faith and architecture you’re going to want to take lots of photos of.
Admire the Carlsbad Caverns
Looking out over the dry Chihuahuan Desert full of flowering cacti and vast, rocky canyons, you’d never guess there were over 100 caves hidden beneath the surface. Created when sulfuric acid met limestone over 4 million years ago, these caves are filled with fascinating geological formations, rare microbes, ancient fossils, and over 400,000 Brazilian free-tail bats. Simply waiting for you to explore them, this collection of caverns promises to be of the most enchanting and spectacular natural sights you’ll ever see.
Visit Taos Pueblo
Located at the base of the astonishing Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range lies Taos Pueblo. Meet the beautiful Native American community living here, who share their culture and celebrations with travellers from all over the World. Guaranteed to be an adventure like no other, this fascinating neighbourhood features buildings created long before Columbus sailed over the seas. Some structures date back to 1000 A.D. Made entirely of adobe (dirt mixed with straw and water) and vigas (timber), these houses are currently home to 150 people and make for something to marvel at.
Eat some local food
There’s no better way to immerse yourself in the culture of a new destination than to try some of its local delicacies, and New Mexico has some of the best food goin’ round. Adding more than a bit of spice to their meals, New Mexicans cook with love, passion, and bold flavours. They mix the best of Spanish cuisine and southwestern ingredients for meals that are simply mouthwatering. From cheeseburgers stuffed with green chiles and enchiladas stacked with red ones to blue corn pancakes and sopapillas drizzled with honey. New Mexican food is bound to satisfy your cravings.
Explore the Bandelier National Monument
If you want a bigger and better taste of New Mexico’s natural beauty, lace up your hiking boots! Head to Bandelier National Monument, a vast landscape of unusually shaped ancient runes. Featuring over 33,000 acres of jagged canyons full of petroglyphs, pictographs, and cave dwellings. Get an insight into a culture that’s survived many centuries. This national monument allows for a deeper understanding of the ancestral Pueblo people and a greater appreciation for what Mother Nature can do when you give her time.
Go hiking at Kasha Katuwe National Monument
Another day, another national monument to explore, and this one’s arguably more extraordinary than the last. Located 40 miles southwest of Santa Fe, the Kasha Katuwe National Monument is remarkable in every way possible. From its geological observation opportunities, several hiking trails, and cone-shaped rock formations, your camera will love it. These natural landmarks are just one of the many fascinating things in the park. It was formed from volcanic eruptions millions of years ago. Mother Nature simply doesn’t get any better than this.
