Spanish colony since the 16th century, New Mexico was the land of the Native Americans then that of the Pueblos and the Navajos. It carries within itself these two cultural imprints which today make the beauty of the place and the pleasure of tourists who wish to discover this State.

The Unmissable Things of New Mexico

A few large cities will shape your route. Located along the famous Rio Grande River, Albuquerque is the largest city in the state. To understand a state, you must know its history. So don't miss visiting the cultural center of the Pueblo Indians and other tribes.

At the opposite end of all this, Albuquerque will offer you the largest gathering of hot air balloons every year in October. “Le Ballon fiesta” delights more than 80,000 people each year. If you wish, you can stay at the Best Western Rio Grande INN. This hotel will satisfy you.

An hour and a half's drive north, head to Santa Fe in summer. This quintessential Spanish colonial city will welcome you with its Adobe architecture. And as surprising as it may seem, you can go there in winter and enjoy its ski slopes.

Further south, closer to the towns of El Paso, Las Cruces, a rather unusual nature will await you. The “White Sands” will amaze you. As white as chalk, this desert of white dunes of more than 712km2 will delight hiking enthusiasts.
