Whether it’s spending Christmas Eve wandering Canyon Road galleries, amidstfarolitos and little bonfireswhile a light snow dusts adobe walls, or dancing to local musicians on the Plaza on a summer evening. It’s Saturday morning strolling the popular Farmer’s Market at the Santa Fe Railyard, picking through heirloom tomatoes and freshly roasted green chile. It’s outdoor fun – hitting the slopes at Ski Santa Fe, hiking Hyde Park or the Pecos Wilderness, visiting the dog park with views of the Sangre de Cristos and Jemez Mountains, river rafting the Rio Grande or Rio Chama Rivers. It’s a breathtaking sunset from your seat at the open-air Santa Fe Opera or a relaxing evening at the historic Lensic Theater, watching performances from the Santa Fe Symphony or the Aspen Ballet to Americana artists like Rodney Crowell. It’s one evening of upscale eating in places like The Compound, Geronimo’s or La Casa Sena and then another evening of hitting local hot spots like The Cowgirl BBQ, Del Charro and Second Street Brewery, where you can get a healthy dose of green or red chile in almost every dish. It’s breakfast at Pasqual’s or Tia Sophia’s or Tecolote Café, mulling over the hard choices of huevos rancheros or a breakfast burrito after your luxurious evening of sitting around the kiva fireplace in a home, provided by Two Casitas Vacation Rentals. And then there’s the shopping. Whether you’re drawn to the Native American artists under the portal at the Palace of the Governors, the luxury of Lucchese, Santa Fe Dry Goods, Overland Sheepskin or even Ortaga’s on the Plaza, you’ll find the perfect gift for someone at home. Or better yet, for yourself. And spas. From the open tubs at Ten Thousand Waves to the full service Body or the luxury of Bishop’s Lodge, there are dozens of places to indulge your need for total relaxation and pampering. Did we mention museums?The Georgia O’Keefe, New Mexico Museum of Art and the New Mexico History Museum, right off the Plaza. Or Museum Hill with the Wheelwright Museum of the American Indian, Museum of Spanish Colonial Art, Museum of Indian Arts & Culture, and the ever amazing and entertaining Museum of International Folk Art. Do you like churches? Northern New Mexico, known for the historically rich and architecturally unique churches boastsEl Santuario de Chimayo, a healing site where dirt from a back room of the church can heal physical and spiritual ills, considered the most important Catholic pilgrimage center in the U.S. There’s the St. Francis Cathedral, a beautiful Romanesque Revival architectural marvel, built by Archbishop Lamy. Or Loretto Chapel, home of the miraculous staircase some believe to have been constructed by St. Joseph himself. Santa Fe is all this and more. It is luxury and playfulness, beauty and rugged outdoors, a black tie or hiking and cowboy boots town where you’ll find exactly the activity, food and fun that suit you. Come see us soon!
