New Mexico
A vibrant, ancient land of vast canyons, endless desert plains and Ancestral Puebloan villages, watched over by the magnificent Sangre de Cristos Mountains, New Mexico feels like a pocket of South America with a distinctly North American edge. Ancient adobe houses and baroque churches give a flavour of past inhabitants, while vast landscapes and staggering beauty abounds.
From the museums, galleries and fiesta atmosphere of Santa Fe to the Ancestral Puebloan villages of Taos and the stunning mountains of the Apache National Forest, New Mexico combines history, scenery and culture into one enticing package.
"Santa Fe, Taos and Albuquerque are great places to visit, offering a real mix of big city (and Breaking Bad) sights, authentic New Mexican style and history. Another top destination are the ancient Pueblo dwellings that nestle in the cliffside. It's also worth hiring a car to drive along the 'Turquoise trail' and the Rio Grande River Gorge to enjoy the breathtaking views."
