Experience Naturally Beautiful Santa Fe

ith jaw-dropping 360-degree mountain views,

over 300 days a year of glorious sunshine, perfect sunsets and 1.5 million acres of pristine national forest, Santa Fe is a natural setting for an inspired retreat from the ordinary. Nourish your soul while breathing the cleanest air in the country or simply enjoying a peaceful walk at 7,000 feet up in the Rocky Mountains. As the highest and oldest capital city in the United States, Santa Fe's climate is defined by colorful changes in season and sharp blue skies. So breathe deep, exhale and repeat. Then start visualizing your own colorful journey to Santa Fe.

All of us in Santa Fe hope you have a chance to experience our city and see for yourself what makes this 400-year old home-town so fascinating.

As you journey through the Santa Fe Plaza you’ll see some of the oldest buildings in the country. The Palace of the Governors, built in 1610, goes back to Santa Fe's earliest days. Wander through the inner courtyards of Sena Plaza and experience life at a leisurely pace, enjoying the discovery of colorful flowers and handcrafted treasures. Our centuries-old history and culture are preserved and alive today behind every adobe wall.

Santa Fe is one of the country’s most important cities for visual art and is also a vibrant center of performing arts. The town is filled with artists, actors, writers, musicians, filmmakers and most of all, creativ-ity—one reason Santa Fe was designated the first UNESCO Creative City in the U.S. for Folk Art and Design. Try a hands-on workshop with a local artist, and see art come alive.

Our cuisine is famous for its unique blend of the three cultures (Native American, Spanish and Anglo) that settled and continue to dwell here, so much so that hundreds of cookbooks and chefs have devoted recipes and content to the subject of Santa Fe cooking. Be sure to try our most famous local crop—chile—as you enjoy a meal or two in our incredible restaurants. A signature aspect of Santa Fe cuisine, no visit would be complete without red, green, or Christmas on your plate.

As a community surrounded by pristine nature due to our location in the southern Rocky Mountains, coupled with over 300 days a year of sunshine, Santa Fe is home to great outdoor adventure. Our loca-tion amidst national forests and state parks makes Santa Fe an ideal stepping-off spot for all kinds of outdoor recreation. The Interna-

tional Mountain Bicycling Association chose Santa Fe as the location for their 2012 World Summit, and athletes from around the world regularly train here due to the high altitude, great weather and clean air.

Santa Fe has continu-ally been rated as one of the top U.S. destinations for travel, romance, cul-ture, art and food, so we have a lot to share with you. I know you will find your favorite parts of Santa Fe as you explore, and I'm certain you will come to appreciate this special place as much as I do.

As you make your way through this travel planner, remember there is no way to possibly tell you everything there is to do and see in Santa Fe in these few pages. I urge you to also delve into our website at santafe.org, and remember the helpful specialists at our visitor centers are here to assist at any point prior to or during your stay. Give them a call at 800-777-2489, and then get out and enjoy a beautiful and colorful journey in Santa Fe!

We look forward to your visit.

2013 santa fe travel planner 5

Romantic and RestfulFrom weddings and honeymoons to weekend getaways and anniversaries, Santa Fe is tailor-made for romance. There’s really nothing like strolling through the Plaza hand-in-hand with your sweetheart, and later, sitting beside a roaring kiva on a chilly evening while you reflect on a perfect day of shopping and sightseeing. Feeling lazy? Many Santa Fe hotels offer spa services; try a relaxing couple's massage right in your room. When you’re ready to venture forth, take in a show at the Lensic or a performance at the Santa Fe Opera, then wind down with a romantic dinner at one of Santa Fe’s exquisite restaurants to nourish your souls and rekindle the glow.

Gal-friendly FunShopping, spas, jewelry and art—need we say more? With so many things to do—plus opportunities to take it easy—Santa Fe is perfect for bachelorette weekends, mini-reunions with college girlfriends and celebrations of all kinds. Get your shopping on at one of 250 fabulous boutiques. Turquoise, pottery, Native American arts and Southwestern accents make great Santa Fe souvenirs. When you’re ready for some girl talk, gather for a luxurious wrap, massage or therapeutic soak at one of Santa Fe’s world-class spas. Love food? Discover New Mexican cuisine when you take a class together at one of the city’s excellent cooking schools, then let someone else do the cooking as you all decide where to enjoy your next delicious meal.

Outdoor AdventurersShopping, schmopping. If your idea of a great time is being outdoors and staying active, Santa Fe can satisfy the most adventurous soul. Cyclists love our hills, and the many trails throughout the area are a mountain biker’s dream. Meet your buddies in Santa Fe for a memorable guys’ weekend. Enjoy miles of open road and vistas around every corner when you take a motorcycle tour—you can even rent your bikes while you’re in town. When the weather gets cold, the winter sports heat up. For skiing, snowboarding, ice skating and even snowblading, Santa Fe is the perfect guys’ weekend or family vacation.

The Perfect Getaway for Any Reason!One hardly needs an excuse to come to Santa Fe. But if you insist, how about world-class restaurants, shopping, spas, performance venues and art galleries? Fascinating historical sites and a colorful, tricultural heritage permeating the city? Incredible sightseeing, fun day trips and energizing outdoor activities? With so many things to do and see, Santa Fe has something for everyone.

Venture to Taos (a short 90-minute drive north of Santa Fe).

Adventures de TaosA powerful yet sublime energy and freedom about Taos compels the highly creative to make it home. Taos is home to six museums, 60+ art galleries, and hundreds of working artists. There is always something amazing to see and explore. Creativity is a tradition and a way of life.

There are three major visual art festivals in Taos – Fall Arts, the Wool Festival and Spring Arts — several � lm festivals, a poetry and storytelling festival, and four music festivals — classical, jazz and rock. But know that almost every weekend in Taos is packed full of activities, events, exhibits, fandangos and festivals — most of them free.

Photography Tours with Geraint SmithFor a one-of-a-kind adventure consider a group or customized photo tour, class or workshop with Taos photographer Geraint Smith. His tours take people to inspirational spots he’s photographed for over 30 years. You’ll wander the back roads in the unique landscape of Northern New Mexico and experience this enchanting and mystical corner of the world.

Museum Association of TaosThe Museum Association of Taos has a combination ticket that provides admission to � ve art and history museums — E.L. Blumenschein Home & Museum, la Hacienda de los Martinez Museum, Harwood Museum of Art, the Millicent Rogers Museum and the Taos Art Museum & Fechin House.

Millicent Rogers MuseumThe Millicent Rogers Museum, established as a memorial and legacy to the Standard Oil heiress whose name it embodies, showcases outstanding historical collections of Native American art and jewelry, contemporary paintings, weavings, and pottery, including the Maria Martinez family collection, Hispanic textiles, metalwork and sculpture, and a wide range of contemporary Anglo-European Southwestern Art.

The museum’s superb setting provides 360-degree views including the multi-hued Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Its adobe architecture, which is a combination of a historic Taos Style house with elegant additions designed by the renowned architect, Nathaniel Owings—adds to the pleasure of visiting this jewel of the high desert terrain and legacy of Millicent Rogers.

Taos Outdoor and Active AdventuresTaos’ unique mountain elevation has created a year-round paradise for outdoor adventure and those seeking to rejuvenate. Taos is a mecca for � y-� shing, white water rafting, hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, llama trekking, rock climbing, skiing/snowboarding and exploring.

Adventures abound at the Taos Ski Valley, rated one of the top 10 ski destinations in the U.S. You’ll never want to ski, bike or hike another mountain. Wonderful resort accommodations to escape and relax in, and a feeling you will want to revisit again and again. A pristine alpine village nestled inside the very heart of The Great Southwest. For centuries now, adventurous travelers have come for a short visit and stayed.

Taos’ World Class Accommodations Taos InnThe Historic Taos Inn is both a State and National Historic Landmark in the heart of historic downtown Taos. In addition to 41 rooms and three suites, the hotel has complimentary live music seven nights a week— from jazz, bluegrass and � amenco, to Americana, Native American and world beat. Their restaurant, Doc Martin’s, has one of the best wine lists in New Mexico, and has received the Wine Spectator “Best of” Award of Excellence for 25 consecutive years. Don’t miss Happy Hour in the Adobe Bar, Monday through Friday from 4–6 p.m.

The Dreamcatcher Bed & BreakfastNestled in the trees in a quiet Taos neighborhood, The Dreamcatcher Bed & Breakfast is a short 10-minute walk to the Taos Plaza. Each room has a private � replace and guests will be served a fabulous hot European breakfast before exploring our many shops, galleries, museums or outdoors activities. The owners will recommend the best places to eat your way through town sampling regional

specialties. Whatever the season, Taos’ magical landscape will renew you and touch your soul and the Dreamcatcher Bed & Breakfast will add to the adventure.

Adobe & PinesAdobe & Pines Inn is an historic 1830s adobe hacienda preserved with original architectural elements and transformed into one of the most charming and luxurious hideaways in the Southwest. Situated amid acres of country gardens, this is a quiet spot to get away and slow down. Centrally located in the lush rural valley of Taos, they are just four miles south of the historic plaza.

Adobe & Pines Inn was voted Best of the Best in Taos for several years, the most romantic southwest inn by BedandBreakfast.com and recently received The Award of

Excellence by TripAdvisor, your stay will be topped by a scrumptious three-course breakfast each morning.

Unique ShoppingWith almost no national chain stores, Taos provides a mecca of one-of-a-kind stores. What you buy in Taos, you won’t � nd anywhere else.

In the heart of the historic district, The John Dunn Shops, Taos’ � nest shops, line a beautiful pedestrian walkway linking Bent Street, Taos Plaza, and Camino de las Placitas. Twenty independent and locally owned shops offer delightful treasures not found in urban malls. Two galleries highlight the arts and crafts of local artists. The friendly, casual Bent Street Café & Deli serves delicious breakfasts, lunches and Sunday brunch.

The John Dunn House, on the National Historic Register, was the home of one of Taos’ most colorful characters. Stroll in John Dunn’s garden, sit by a shaded fountain, listen to local musicians and enjoy a cappuccino.

With so much to see and do in Taos, we recommend adding a few days to your trip to experience it all. Just a 1.5-hour gorgeous drive from Santa Fe, in Taos there are no lines, and no waiting to access memorable vacation experiences, rejuvenation and adventures.

We’re eager to meet you!

santa fe Neighborhoods!

“Explore Santa Fe's most popular stomping grounds”

Funky, Fab, FriendlyWith its unique boutiques, galleries, restaurants and handful of chain stores, the Railyard/Guadalupe district renaissance is definitely complete. Take a class at the Santa Fe School of Cooking on the north side, then head south-west of downtown to the heart of the Railyard where you’ll find contem-porary art galleries, independent clothing and accessory shops, boutiques selling everything from antiques to cowboy boots and some of Santa Fe’s most popular eateries. Meander slightly west toward Montezuma Street to browse pet supplies, bedding and more at the colorful Sanbusco Market Center, and cap off your visit with a trip to Santa Fe's celebrated Farmers Market, which is flanked by the Railyard Park, SITE Santa Fe and contem-porary performance venues.

Railyard/Guadalupe District

The Art and Soul of Santa FeStunning Canyon Road has come a long way since its dirt trail days of centuries past. Now Santa Fe’s most famous street, Canyon Road is an art lover’s mecca, with more than 100 world-class art galleries showcasing old masters, contemporary paintings and sculpture, and traditional Native American weaving, ceramics and jewelry. With its beautifully preserved and restored adobe and Territorial-style homes, Canyon Road is architectur-ally artful as well. Several exceptional restaurants will help you recharge before hitting the next amazing shop or gallery. The mile-long street is eminently walkable and distinctly Santa Fe delightful.

Canyon Road

Plaza/Downtown History Meets Hospitality Back in “the day” (that would be more than 400 years ago), the Plaza—originally a presidio, or fort—was the epicenter of Santa Fe life, government and commerce. A defensive wall surrounded houses, the home of the governor and even a prison. Today the Plaza's vibe is considerably more friendly, with fabulous shops, restaurants, art galleries and museums bordering the perimeter of a grassy park. Some of the city’s finest hotels and oldest landmarks are just a block away, making the Plaza and downtown area a convenient place to simply park, forget about your car for a few days and soak in everything that is Santa Fe.

CULTURAL DESTINATION

TRAVEL + LEISURE

History and Culture


Yule love the seasonSet your heart aglow with a visit to Santa Fe during the holidays. Farolitos light up buildings across the city, spirits are bubbly and the city celebrates the joy of the season, Santa Fe–style. If you’re lucky enough to be visiting over Thanksgiving weekend, find a spot in the Plaza on Friday when the lights go on—the official kickoff to the holiday season. Las Posadas, which starts and ends at the Palace of the Governors, re-creates the biblical journey of Mary and Joseph as they searched for shelter that holy night. On Christmas Eve, sip hot chocolate and join families strolling down Canyon Road at the annual Farolito Walk.

We still hold public burnings. Santa Feans annually clean house of their worries and troubles with the public burning of Zozobra (aka “Old Man Gloom”) the week after Labor Day. The 50-foot marionette moans, groans and thrashes in harmless fury while the city’s residents joyfully watch their concerns and worries go up in flames.

The original party animalsSanta Feans are social creatures, and our celebra-tions are legendary. Santa Fe even has a festival season that extends from May through October and features more than 40 fairs, markets, shows and festivals that celebrate everything from wine and chile to American Indian art and jazz music. With dry, cool, sunny sum-mers and autumns, can you blame us? (See Events, page 56.) During the summer months, visit El Rancho de las Golondrinas, a living history museum, for festivals showcasing wines, lavender and herbs and Mexican culture. In the fall, crush grapes and string ristras during the museum's harvest celebration. Some Santa Fe festival traditions are new, but many have roots in the city’s earliest days. Visit the City of Holy Faith the week after Labor Day during Fiestas de Santa Fe, the old-est continuous community celebration in the United States, dating to 1712.

Santa Fe—the oldest capital city in the United States—celebrates birthday number 403 in 2013. Funny: In some ways, the city seems timeless. The Plaza, a one-block square in the center of downtown that has served as Santa Fe’s cul-tural, social and political hub for four centuries, is the heart and soul of Santa Fe. Grab an ice cream and find a bench; today’s Plaza is a grassy park that encourages lounging. The best part? You can leave your car keys behind. The Plaza has it all: shops, restaurants, museums, free summertime con-certs and the best people-watching in the city.

Tricultural coolnessStroll along the Plaza and you’re walking in the footsteps of Santa Fe’s most colorful ancestors. A blend of Native American, Spanish and Anglo cultures, Santa Fe’s rich and fascinating history dates back to the arrival of nomadic Paleo-Indians in this region around 10,000 BC. Their descendants were the original settlers of the area and the architects of adobe structures and the pueblo style that defines Santa Fe’s distinctive look even today.

Spanish explorers in search of gold made their entrance to the Santa Fe area in the mid-16th century, eventu-ally settling in the area and establish-ing Santa Fe as the capital of Nuevo Mexico around 1610.

Anglo settlers began making their way into the Santa Fe region around 1750, with thousands more pouring in following the creation of the Santa Fe Trail in 1821 and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway in 1878.

In 1824, under Mexico the Spanish province of Nuevo Mexico became

the Territory of New Mexico, but in 1846, the United States claimed possession of New Mexico, spurring the Mexican-American War. Two years later, in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, Mexico ceded nearly all of present-day California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico to the U.S. New Mexico was admitted to the Union as the 47th state in 1912 and celebrated its centennial of statehood last year.

The history of both the state of New Mexico and its ancient capital city is rooted in the interaction among its original settlers. Interactions between these groups centu-ries ago define Santa Fe even today, where the city’s diverse cultural history is apparent in every single aspect of its art, cuisine and architecture.

From mud to magnificentRidiculed by early travelers and modernists for the mostly brown, earth-toned exteriors of her buildings and homes, Santa Fe is enjoying the last laugh as thousands of visitors flock to the City Different each year. Let’s face it, from the moment you arrive in Santa Fe, you're surrounded in history. Architecturally, Santa Fe relies on its earliest inhabitants for guidance. The brown exteriors remain, but inside, galleries, museums, restaurants and homes are an eye-popping array of vibrant colors and unusual style elements that blend the historic with the contemporary.

With Santa Fe's low skyline, you can stroll beneath brilliant skies, savor the magnificent mountain views in the distance and let Santa Fe’s singular adobe style sink into your psyche.

10,000 BC – Nomadic Paleo-Indians move into what is now the Santa Fe area. 1000–1400 AD – Agriculture takes hold. Several permanent pueblos are built. 1400–1600 – Roughly 5,000 people live in pueblos. 1598 – Conquistador Don Juan de Oñate establishes first Spanish settlement in Northern New Mexico at San Juan (Ohkay Owingeh) and becomes first colonial governor of Nuevo Mexico.

Timeline: 1609–1610 – Santa Fe established as capital of Nuevo Mexico. Palace of the Governors constructed ca. 1610. 1680 – Ohkay Owingeh medicine man Po'Pay leads successful Pueblo Revolt, expels Spanish from Nuevo Mexico. 1692 – Don Diego de Vargas leads bloodless reconquest of Nuevo Mexico. 1700–1750 – Adobe buildings erected facing the Santa Fe Plaza. First homes constructed along Canyon Road. 1821– Mexico wins independence from Spain. Santa Fe Trail opens, stretching from Missouri River to Santa Fe.

MEMO TO SELF: Come back for…

Indian Market (mid-August) Sponsored by the Southwestern Association for Indian Art (SWAIA), Indian Market is the largest gathering of Native American artisans (over 1,000) in the world. Winter Indian Market is held Thanksgiving weekend at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center.

Spanish Market (late July and early December) The Spanish Colonial Arts Society hosts this colorful semiannual

showcase featuring the work of hundreds of local Hispanic artists. Spanish Market Week also features live music and dance performances, cooking classes and film screenings.

International Folk Art Market (mid-July) Master artists from around the globe—many of them women—come to Santa Fe to sell their art and share their cultures. The International Folk Art Market is the largest event of its kind in the world, featuring more than 150 artisans.

Fiestas de Santa Fe (weekend after Labor Day) Descendants of the Spanish settlers in this area have been celebrating Fiestas since 1712. Events include concerts, performers in traditional costumes, a mariachi extravaganza, a fine-arts and crafts market, reenactments, processions and parades and the burning of Zozobra.

What is that?The three main styles of architecture in Santa Fe are Pueblo, Territorial and Northern New Mexico. However, in the oldest parts of the city, new buildings, additions and remodels must conform to one of two styles:

Pueblo or Pueblo Revival – Inspired by Native American adobe buildings and Spanish mud-brick churches, the Pueblo Revival style features earth-colored stucco walls with an adobe-like appearance, rounded corners at intersections, brick flooring, flat roofs drained by canales and rows of vigas. Although at one time mostly one-story, today’s pueblo-style buildings are often multistoried.See this style when you visit: Palace of the Governors, La Fonda on the Plaza, New Mexico Museum of Art

Territorial – Similar to Pueblo style, but with sharp-cornered walls, brick coping around the roofline and wood-trimmed windows. See this style when you visit: Catron Building (northeast side of the Plaza) and various homes on Canyon Road

Speak! Santa FeBrush up on your Santa Fe vocabulary, then test your knowledge as you take on the town:

acequia (ah•SEH•kee•ah) – A manmade irrigation ditch.

banco (BAHNK•oh) – A built-in plastered bench, often seen around kivas and under windows.

chile (CHEE•lay) – The pepper that defines New Mexico cuisine. Long and green or red, chiles can be roasted, smoked or dried.

corbel (COR•bul) – A large wooden bracket, often carved to be both functional and decorative, that supports vigas and lintels.

descanso (des•CAHN•soh) – A roadside memorial to a loved one killed near that spot, usually in a traffic accident. farolitos (fa•roh•LEE•tohs) Paper bags filled with sand and illuminated with candles. Also called luminarias.

kiva (KEE•va) – The iconic Santa Fe fireplace, small and semicircular with a round opening, usually built into a corner.

latillas (lah•TEE•ahs) – Straight, slender saplings stripped of bark and laid across vigas like decking.

nicho (NEE•cho) – A wall niche used to display religious objects, sculptures, shrines or small pieces of art.

portal (por•TAHL) – An attached, covered porch supported by posts with corbels and vigas.

ristra (REE•stra) – A string of fresh or dried red chile peppers.

vigas (VEE•gas) – Large round wooden beams attached to a ceiling to support the roof.

New Mexico History Museum & Palace of the Governors (113 Lincoln, 105 W Palace) Immerse yourself in all that was and is New Mexico. Short on time? Start with the New Mexico History Museum, which covers prehistory to today, then head to the Palace of the Governors. The oldest continually occupied govern-ment building in the United States, the Palace of the Governors was built in 1610 and currently houses numerous exhibitions, collections and artifacts reflecting the area’s nearly 500-year history. During the daytime, Native American artisans sell authentic American Indian jewelry beneath the Palace’s long portal.

Historic Plaza (bounded by W Palace, Lincoln, E San Francisco and Old Santa Fe Trail) The Plaza was established ca. 1610 by Don Pedro de Peralta. Originally a presidio (fort) surrounded by a wall that enclosed barracks, a chapel, a prison, a few homes and the Palace

of the Governors, the Plaza today is a grassy square surrounded by exquisite shops and exceptional restaurants. A bandstand, plentiful benches and an easy-to-navigate layout encourage sitting, strolling and people-watching.

St. Francis Cathedral (131 Cathedral Place) Offi-

cially called the Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi, St. Fran-cis Cathedral combines adobe, French-Romanesque and modern architectural styles in a breathtakingly beautiful package both inside and out. Built between 1869–1887 by Bishop Jean-Baptiste Lamy, the cathedral is decorated with stunning stained glass windows and is a photographer’s delight.

Barrio de Analco (roughly bounded by E De Vargas and Old Santa Fe Trail off De Vargas) Barrio de Analco is the oldest his-toric district in Santa Fe. It includes San Miguel Mission and the Old-est House, plus five other historic structures and the buildings in between them. Built between 1610 and 1626, San Miguel Mission (401 Old Santa Fe Trail) is regarded

as the oldest church in the United States. Though damaged and rebuilt numerous times, the church’s original adobe walls remain intact. The Oldest House (215 E De Vargas), also called the De Vargas Street House, is reputed to be the oldest house in the United States, reportedly built around 1646.

Loretto Chapel (207 Old Santa Fe Trail) Formerly a Roman Catholic church, the

Loretto Chapel is no longer in use as a church but functions as a museum and wedding chapel. The chapel’s “miraculous” spiral staircase is an ar-chitectural wonder; its construction is the subject of much speculation.

La Fonda on the Plaza (100 E San Francisco) A grand and sprawling example of Pueblo Revival architecture, this Santa Fe landmark hotel was the favorite of

many early-20th-century artists, writers and visiting dignitaries. Architect and Pueblo Revival champion John Gaw Meem constructed the hotel in 1926, and pioneering architect and designer Mary Jane Colter designed the hotel’s interior.

Santuario de Guadalupe (100 N Guadalupe) Southwest of the Plaza, the Santuario de Guadalupe was built around 1776. A 12-foot statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe, patron saint of New Mexico, rests on the grounds.

Sena Plaza (125 E Palace) Santa Feans have used Sena Plaza as a gathering place since 1610. Major Jose Sena built a small adobe on the site in 1864 which gradually increased in size to a grand hacienda boasting more than 33 rooms. Today it houses La Casa Sena, a favorite local restau-rant, and a number of shops. Its courtyard is one of the prettiest places to sit in Santa Fe.

Canyon Road The “art and soul of Santa Fe,” Canyon Road was a dirt trail for almost 250 years. Today it is home to more than 100 of the world’s finest art galleries, containing works from the Taos and Santa Fe art-ists of the late 1800s and 1900s, as well as those of modern masters. While you’re checking out art along the mile-long road, be sure to also take in the buildings housing it; many are well over a century old and beautifully preserved.

DowntownThe historic heart of Santa Fe is also a hub of fine-art activity, with dozens of galleries and a handful of mu-seums lining the Plaza and its surrounding streets. Na-tive American art takes center stage under the portal of the Palace of the Governors, where Native artists spread out their work on blankets and sell directly to the public. Across from St. Francis Cathedral, the Museum of Contemporary Native Arts is the only museum in the country that showcases the work of contemporary American Indian artists. Take in the large permanent collection of works created in and related to New Mexico at the 96-year-old New Mexico Museum of Art, a magnificent Span-ish Pueblo Revival building. Learn about the life and works of New Mexico icon and 20th-century modern-ist painter Georgia O'Keeffe and her contemporaries at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, founded in 1997. South of the Plaza, the State Capitol’s Governor’s Gallery, part of the New Mexico Museum of Art and Department of Cultural Affairs, presents six exhibits a year featuring works by prominent present-day New Mexico artists. The building also contains the Capitol Art Collection, comprising almost 600 paintings, sculptures, textiles, glass works, ceramics and mixed media pieces. The City of Santa Fe Arts Commission's Community Gallery at the Community Convention Center exhibits and sells the work of Santa Fe and New Mexico artists.

Canyon RoadNearly a mile long, Canyon Road, Santa Fe’s most famous street, was designated a Residential Arts and Crafts Zone by the City in 1962. Authentic adobe homes, some hundreds of years old, are now galleries specializing in Western, Native American and landscape art, while newer galleries feature a variety of other genres and mediums. The amount of cutting-edge, conceptual and contemporary realist art on Canyon Road has grown exponentially over the last two decades, linking Santa Fe even more strongly to the global art scene.

The RailyardSince its unveiling in the fall of 2008, and with the arrival shortly thereafter of the Rail Runner railway line, the 50-acre, city-owned Railyard has become a thriving art center and community gathering spot. (Visit the SFCVB Railyard Visitors Center at the Historic Depot, 410 S Guadalupe.) SITE Santa Fe, a private, not-for-profit, contemporary art space dedicated to in-novative, contemporary artwork and to generating discourse about art, serves as one of the area’s anchors.

Museum HillSituated on Camino Lejo, a hillside street southeast of down-town accessible by the Santa Fe Trails M-Line, Museum Hill offers four distinct institutions representing art of the South-west and the world. The first-rate, privately owned Museum of Spanish Colonial Art and Wheelwright Museum of the Ameri-can Indian are at opposite ends of the short drive. In between, on Milner Plaza, you'll find the Museum of International Folk Art, home to the world’s largest collection of traditional folk art from around the globe, and the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture, which presents the diverse Native arts of the greater Southwest with an eye to the ties between art and its historic and cultural contexts.

Other AreasAbout a mile away from Museum Hill on Old Santa Fe Trail, the Center for Contemporary Arts promotes some of the area's best contemporary art and houses one of Santa Fe’s best movie theaters. Warehouse 21 and Santa Fe Community College (which recently opened Red Dot Gallery on Canyon Road) host impressive shows of young, up-and-coming local artists, while the Santa Fe Art Institute on St. Michael’s Drive offers workshops, lectures, outreach programs, artist residencies and contemporary art exhibitions. On the south side, the four-year

santafe.org30

Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA) houses the permanent collec-tion of the Museum of Contemporary Native Arts. In Tesuque, five miles north of downtown, the Shidoni Foundry showcases bronze sculpture cast on-site and offers weekly, open-to-the-public molten bronze pours.

Public ArtGalleries and museums aren’t the only places to find art in Santa Fe. Thanks to a 1986 legislative act, New Mexico is charged with setting aside funds to acquire or commission works by New Mexico artists. More than 70 public art displays throughout the City of Santa Fe enhance the beauty of civic buildings, public parks and Santa Fe’s transit system. These works represent the diversity of art found in the Southwest and, of course, Santa Fe.

Creative TourismPerhaps one of the best ways to appreciate Santa Fe's art is to create your own. Most of Santa Fe's museums offer hands-on classes with profes-sional artists in residence, and many artists offer private classes in paint-ing, weaving, katsina making, pottery, photography, folk art and many other mediums.

Art comes to life in Santa Fe. Performing arts venues bustle year-round with offerings large and small, classic and cutting-edge. The center of it all is downtown’s Lensic Performing Arts Center, a 1931 Spanish Renaissance–style auditorium that hosted the likes of Judy Garland and Rita Hayworth before falling into disrepair in the late 20th century. Restored and reopened in 2001, the Len-sic features music, dance and literary events both traditional and contemporary and is home to seven performance organizations such as the Santa Fe Symphony and Aspen Santa Fe Ballet. You’ll find plenty of power performances elsewhere in the city, at places like Warehouse 21 and the Center for Contemporary Arts; Santa Fe's concerts range from big-ticket bonanzas to free family fare.

MusicSpend an unforgettable summer evening at the open-air Santa Fe Opera, which attracts star singers from Europe and New York’s Metropolitan Opera. From July through August, enjoy new and classic works while taking in both the show onstage and the one beyond it: the sunsets, the rainstorms, the clouds and the night sky. Get your fill of world-class classical music performances at the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival (also in July and August), and from fall through spring with the Santa Fe Symphony Orchestra & Chorus and the chamber ensemble Santa Fe Pro Musica. Choral aficiona-dos can hear the Santa Fe Desert Chorale in the summer and winter months at venues like the Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi, while wind ensemble enthusiasts can catch Concordia Santa Fe year-round at St. Francis Auditorium (full ensemble) or St. John’s United Methodist Church (chamber music). With a season that runs August through April, the longstanding Santa Fe Concert Association offers diverse programming that ranges from theater groups and dance troupes to instrumentalists and vocal ensembles. In June, the three-day Thirsty Ear Festival, a roots-music bonanza, includes headline artists like Keb'Mo' and Billy

Performed in a historic adobe in the nearly 400-year-old Barrio de Analco neighborhood, imaginative community productions range from Ibsen dramas to Shakespeare comedies to the annual BenchWarmers plays (eight 15-minute pieces written by locals). For those with avant-garde taste, Theater Grottesco, formed 29 years ago in Paris, offers new twists on old standards, melding acting with movement arts. Similarly, the physical-theater circus-arts group known as Wise Fool New Mexico performs its annual Circus Luminous extravaganza at the Len-sic and holds its beloved puppet shows in other locations. In October, the Santa Fe Arts Festival’s art, music and film events—including the Santa Fe Independent Film Festival—are held throughout the city. You can catch the Santa Fe Film Festival, founded in 1999, in December.

DanceBallet lovers and novices alike will marvel at the 11-member Aspen Santa Fe Ballet, which makes its home in both of its namesake cities and performs around the country and the world. In June, the Santa Fe Dance Festival features three consecutive weekends of contemporary choreography performed by Mov-ing People Dance Theatre’s classically trained, ultramodern dancers. Prefer a Spanish flavor? You can find fla-menco performances at both El Farol and The Lodge. Or if you simply can't stand to just sit back and watch, grab a partner and tango the night away at El Mesón.

City of MarketsOriginally a trading post, Santa Fe today is a major shopping destination. Handcrafted jewelry, avant-garde artworks, custom-made cowboy boots, Native American art—all 403 years of Santa Fe’s history are represented in its stores, galleries and markets.

Longstanding family-owned shops line the downtown Plaza, while nationally known chains, in addition to one-of-a kind outfitters, are found in the Railyard/Guadalupe district. Canyon Road bursts with galleries and cafés, and museum shops are everywhere, not just on Museum Hill. Annual markets—like Indian Market, Spanish Market and the International Folk Art Market—draw enthusiastic and shopping-ready crowds from around the world.

When approaching the Plaza, one of the first sights you’ll see is dozens of Native American artisans selling their wares under the portal of the Pal-ace of the Governors. This decades-old tradition is significant for the artists and a big opportunity for shoppers, who can choose from hundreds of pieces of handmade turquoise and silver jewelry on display. Shops and boutiques line all corners of the Plaza and deal primarily in items like jewelry, Native crafts, and high-end clothing. Two shopping centers—the Santa Fe Arcade on the Plaza and the Plaza Mercado—house galleries, chocolate shops, rooftop restaurants and more.

Known for its mile-long stretch of galleries, Canyon Road is one of the best spots in the world to buy art, fine leather goods, Southwestern and contemporary jewelry and chic home furnish-ings. The Sanbusco Market and DeVargas shopping centers in the Railyard/Guadalupe district are go-to spots for home decor, cookware, sporting goods and designer apparel.

ADVENTURE

Santa Fe literally bursts with its own distinct flavor, a zest that you simply have to taste for yourself. Sample our legendary

and innovative cuisine, where the chile isn’t just an ingredient, it’s a way of life. Planning a sightseeing or adventure itinerary during

your visit? Mapping out flavorful meal des-tinations is half the fun. And with nationally acclaimed chefs in more than 250 restaurants

serving everything from traditional New Mexican home cooking to contemporary fine

dining to local farm-to-table discoveries, Santa Fe is a foodie’s paradise. Sip. Inhale.

Savor the one-of-a-kind flavors of Santa Fe.

Savor the one-of-a-kind flavors of Santa Fe.

Spirited pairingsIt’s not all about the food. Santa Fe is also home to several of New Mexico’s 45-plus world-class wineries and distilleries. Your culinary tour won't be complete without a visit to Estrella del Norte Vineyard in Pojoaque or Vino del Corazon downtown. Fans of Scotch-style whiskies will enjoy the tasting room at Santa Fe Spirits. If tequila is more your style, try one of the more than 100 signature margaritas on the menu at Maria's New Mexican Kitchen. No matter where you visit, one of Santa Fe's award-winning mixologists will pour up something special just for you.

We have good tastes Take your dining seriously—as Santa Feans do—and reap the culinary benefits. From New Mexican to Japanese, casual to fine din-ing, breakfast to dessert, there is a restaurant for every culinary hankering. Can’t decide? Ask a local where they like to eat; you’ll likely get a great and maybe even surprising recom-mendation.

Looking for something upscale? Canyon Road’s Geronimo and the Coyote Cafe just off the Plaza, both helmed by Chef Eric DiStefano, will not disappoint. The Compound on Canyon Road features Southwest-inspired creations by James Beard Award winner Chef Mark Kiffin. Iron Chef competitor Martin Rios works magic at his namesake Restaurant Martin.

James Campbell Caruso’s Spanish-inspired La Boca and Taberna La Boca are local favorites, as are Jambo Cafe (three-time winner of the Santa Fe Souper Bowl’s “Best Soup” award), menu-eclectic Harry’s Roadhouse and the Plaza Café, where the caramel apple-pecan pie is a lusciously sweet indulgence.

Food

In search of the perfect green chile cheeseburger Santa Fe boasts at least 10 of the stops along the famous Green Chile Cheeseburger Trail. Bobcat Bite’s burger, named in Alan Richman’s GQ article “20 Hamburgers You Must Eat Before You Die,” is sublime. Be sure to allow plenty of time when you go—the place is small, and the burg-ers are made to order. Bert’s Burger Bowl (“Since 1954: One Location Worldwide!”) serves up a fat, messy concoction along with killer onion rings. Other Santa Fe stops on the trail include Atrisco Café, La Plazuela at La Fonda, El Parasol and Blake’s Lotaburger.

Spend a few hours or an entire day hiking the many trails that wind through Bandelier National Monument. You can explore Native American cliff dwellings and petroglyphs in the park. Just 13 miles north of Bandelier, the quaintness of Los Alamos belies its secretive history as the develop-ment site of the first atomic bomb. The Bradbury Science Museum, which documents the Manhat-tan Project, is well worth a half day’s visit. About an hour west of Los Alamos are the hot springs that bubble through the town of Jemez Springs.

Taos and the High Road The High Road leads to Taos, a historic town about 100 miles northeast of Santa Fe. On the way is the Santuario de Chimayó, a small church built in the early 1800s. In Taos itself is the ancient Taos Pueblo, the Taos Plaza, the Rio Grande Gorge with its 650-foot drop to the river, the Harwood Museum of Art, the Kit Carson Museum and the Millicent Rogers Museum.

Turquoise Trail Named for ancient turquoise mines in the area, the scenic Turquoise Trail heads south out of Santa Fe on Highway 14 toward Albuquerque. The small mining towns of Cerrillos and Madrid (MAD-rid), historic in their own right, today are funky, colorful artists’ communities. The 2007 Disney movie Wild Hogs was filmed partially in Madrid.

Relax & Rejuvenate Resort and Day Spas

Santa Fe offers arguably more world-class spa experiences than any other American city of its size, with treat-ments influenced by cultures near and far—Native American to Euro-pean, Japanese to Indonesian. Santa Fe’s hotel and resort spas, with their extensive and creative menus, are destinations in their own rights, and services may be enjoyed in settings as diverse as outdoor massage gardens and Native American tepees. Day spas certainly hold their own in San-ta Fe, offering perfect complements to activity-filled days of sightseeing, skiing, hiking or shopping. Bliss-ful treatments based on the healing properties of local ingredients, from desert clay to sage and juniper, are among the most popular, as are skin-softening body masks, detoxifying scrubs and wraps and purification rituals. Massages include hot stone, deep tissue, Shiatsu, Swedish, Reiki, chakra balancing, cranial sacral and signature treatments that work you over from head to toe.

“In true Santa Fe spirit, slow down . . . ”

anta Fe’s clean air, abundant sunshine and laid-back vibe keep locals and visitors feeling

peaceful and at ease. The city, well known for its healing and stress-relieving properties, invites you to relax and recharge. In the Santa Fe spirit, take rest seriously: slow down. Absorb the breathtaking scenery, inhale the fresh air, soak in a mountainside hot spring or schedule a customized massage at one of the city’s top-notch spas. Santa Fe guarantees your worlds- away retreat will be memorable— relaxing throughout and refreshing at its end. Learn more at

Soak Away Your StressThe perfect antidote to sore, aching muscles following a day on the town or the trails is a soak in some naturally healing waters. Head toward Santa Fe’s mountains for secluded Japanese-inspired tubs, either budget-friendly communal ones or luxurious private options. Outside of town, an easy drive away, you can indulge in natural geothermal pools that have been recognized for their healing benefits for thousands of years. Ranging in tem-perature from 80 to 109 degrees Fahrenheit, the mineral-rich waters are filled with lithium, iron, soda and arsenic, which are believed to help conditions ranging from depression to digestive issues. A refreshing mud pool is touted as a great way to detoxify your skin. Slather yourself with mud, let it dry in the New Mexico sun and return to town feeling cleansed and refreshed.

Be StillFor those looking to slow down and make quiet contact with their spirit, the Buddhist Upaya Institute and Zen Center on Upper Canyon Road offers daily meditation classes that are open to the public in addition to nu-merous retreats, workshops and weekly public talks. The serene campus alone is enough to calm the mind and body, with its wind-ing paths, adobe buildings and stunning mountain views.

Get MovingYoga is popular in Santa Fe, and the city is home to many studios that serve practitioners of every variety and skill level. Classes center on Ashtanga, Hatha, Vinyasa, Iyengar and Bikram methods, with emphasis placed on everything from flexibility and technique to breathing and creative movement. Most studios offer a "drop-in" option so you can easily fit a workout into your visit.

One of Santa Fe’s biggest draws is its spectacular scenery, and with that scenery comes unparalleled opportunities for outdoor recreation anytime of the year. On Upper Canyon Road, the Randall Davey Audubon Center and the Nature Conservancy’s Santa Fe Canyon Preserve comprise 325 acres that rise through four eco-zones, from brushy cottonwood and willow to Ponderosa pine forest. The walking trails are popular with birdwatchers, thanks to some 140 species that nest on the land. For more challenging routes into the Sangre de Cristos range, head to the Dale Ball trail system or to Atalaya Mountain, a seven-mile-round-trip trek that leads hikers from a sandy arroyo to a rocky ridgetop with expansive views. Mountain bikers are also welcome on most Dale Ball and Atalaya trails, as well as the

Chamisa Trail and the Bor-rego Trail, both part of the Santa Fe National Forest.

If Fido is joining you on this visit to pet-friendly San-ta Fe, let him enjoy the Dale Ball trails too (on-leash), or visit the 22-acre Frank Ortiz Dog Park for some off-leash fun. Hyde Memorial State Park affords more day hiking opportunities with its ex-tensive network of roadside trails, plus campgrounds for tent and RV camping.

One of the best ways to navigate Santa Fe’s rugged terrain and take in its sweeping mountain views is on horseback. You can take a guided tour or private ride on a horse from Santa Fe Stables or Bishop’s Lodge Ranch Resort & Spa.

For those who prefer to hit the ground running (literally), try a competitive run like the Santa Fe to Buffalo Thunder Half Marathon or a low-key fun run. Water babies, take heart: New Mexico may be land-locked, but there’s still wet and wild fun to be had. Enjoy swimming, boating and river rafting at Abiquiú and Cochiti lakes. Nambé Lake is also a good spot for swimming, plus you can get an up-close look at the spectacular Nambé Waterfalls.

At over 7,000 feet, Santa Fe’s mountain setting makes it an ideal destination for skiing. Ski Santa Fe, which has been drawing visitors to its slopes for more than six decades, has 7 lifts, 74 trails, a snowsports school and a children’s center. With one of the highest elevations in the country, Ski Santa Fe is popular with snowboarders too. Within the Santa Fe area, you can also head north to Taos Ski Valley with its 110 trails, and to Pajarito Mountain for snowblading, skiing and snowboard-ing. Snowshoeing and cross-country skiing are popular along the Nordic and Aspen Vista Trails below Ski Santa Fe and at Valles Caldera National Preserve. Enjoy ice skating in Los Alamos or the Genoveva Chavez Community Center in Santa Fe.

Get Up and Go!Outdoor Adventures Abound in Santa Fe

Nature

he Santa Fe Community Convention Center, opened in 2008, was designed to exceed the demands of modern meetings while honoring the creativity, cul-

tural traditions and natural surroundings of Santa Fe. The result is more than a building where meetings are held. Crafted in the city’s appealing Southwestern style and built to the highest environmental standards, the center has gracefully merged into one of the most historic downtowns in the country while providing highly flexible and functional meeting space.

Located just blocks from the Santa Fe Plaza within easy walking distance of hotels, restaurants, attractions, shopping and more than 1,500 sleeping rooms, the convention center is truly in the heart of the city. Functionally, the center is an adaptable, state-of-the-art facility for gathering and work-ing. Features of the complex include outdoor meeting areas (9,500 sq. feet), convenient underground parking, an open interior courtyard, a second floor terrace, wireless connectivity, high-speed data lines and enough meeting space (28,900 sq.

feet indoors) to provide multiple events with their own exhibition areas, breakout rooms and meal function options.

The center’s soft adobe appearance blends into the surrounding cityscape, giving little indication of the center’s LEED Gold Certifica-tion, water-wise construction and solar-powered infrastructure, all in keeping with Santa Fe’s commitment to environmental responsibility. The center has been embraced by the community as well and houses the Community Gallery, an art space featuring the work of local artists.

From the open lobby atrium to the sunny breakout rooms and welcoming outdoor courtyard, the center’s warm environment, sensible layout and visual charm have been consistently praised by meeting planners and event delegates alike. The Santa Fe Commu-nity Convention Center has proved itself ideal for everything from intimate boardroom settings to entire facility buyouts hosting meetings, conventions, concerts and social events.

Santa Fe Convention & Visitor Bureau’s highly trained and inspired sales staff and operations crew work with the city’s many meeting professionals to provide the support needed to make every event successful. For additional details, incentive programs and contact information, visit the convention center’s dedicated website at communityconventioncenter.com/index.html.

During your visit to Santa Fe, there’s no reason to put your daily workout regimen on pause. Home to 61 parks containing 2,500 acres, Santa Fe has loads of options for exer-cise, sports and recreational activities. Check out the walking paths in Frenchy’s Field, Sal-vador Perez Park's indoor pool and family-friendly Bicentennial Park for outdoor swim-ming in the summer.
