New Mexico

The "Land of Enchantment," blending Native, Spanish and Anglo cultures, with a distinctive mix of adobe architecture and desert landscapes.

New Mexico lies in the southwestern United States, with plateaus, deserts and the southern tail of the Rocky Mountains. The capital, Santa Fe, is known for its adobe architecture, art galleries and Canyon Road; Albuquerque hosts the International Balloon Fiesta every fall, and its Old Town preserves a Spanish colonial look; Taos Pueblo, White Sands National Park and Carlsbad Caverns National Park are other major sights. The local cuisine is characterized by red and green chile. Spring and fall are the best times to visit. The main gateway is Albuquerque International Sunport.
