Why Go:
Founded in 1610, Santa Fe boasts a colorful past.
The Palace of the Governors has been around
since the city’s formation. Also on Santa Fe Plaza,
the St. Francis Cathedral evinces the region's
Catholic heritage. Lastly, the world’s only
museum dedicated only to Georgia O'Keefe
Museum and the galleries along Canyon Road
epitomize Santa Fe's storied artistic tradition.
Remember the Santa Fe Trail? We are where it ends and
El Camino Real starts and ends in Mexico City
Chop up one history lesson -- one part Mexican, one part American -- pour in
a large cup of artistic talent, then stir in some spicy chile peppers and whisk it
all together in a mixing bowl, and let your creation bake for 403 years. What
have you just made? Most likely, something similar to the delectable city of
Santa Fe. With a culture based on a variety of unusual ingredients, including
Gothic cathedrals, a love for the great outdoors, chili-infused cuisine and a
profound emphasis on the arts, this truly is the "City Different." This town
also preserves a historic feel -- with Spanish-influenced architecture and
buildings that date back to the 16th century -- still, the main reason people
visit is for its art. The works artists like Georgia O' Keeffe, Peter Hurd and
Miro Kenarov fill the galleries, works that were largely inspired by the city's
dramatic, evolving landscape. Anytime you visit Santa Fe, you can find many
of these renowned pieces along gallery-lined Canyon Road. For a taste of up-
and-coming talent, swing by one of the artisan markets or one of the many
craft festivals that the city hosts. The same landscapes that spoke to O'Keeffe
also call to adventurous types. Active travelers hike the Sangre de Cristo
Mountains and test the powder at Ski Santa Fe. Need a way to round out your
day? Santa Fe is also a great place to taste something different: Take your pick
of one of the gourmet establishments clustered downtown.
($47 round trip and about 50 minute drive time)
I just booked a flight to O’Hare from Santa Fe and it cost less
than flying out of Albuquerque. Most fly into Albuquerque,
spend one day there and most of their time in Santa Fe.
