About the area
Taos, New Mexico, is a truly captivating destination that offers a unique blend of natural beauty, rich history, and vibrant culture. Nestled in the high desert of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Taos is renowned for its awe-inspiring landscapes that beckon adventure. The area's natural attractions include the Rio Grande Gorge, perfect for hiking or rafting amidst breathtaking scenery, and Wheeler Peak, the highest point in New Mexico that's ideal for hiking and skiing.
The town's historic adobe buildings are a testament to its rich cultural heritage. The Taos Pueblo is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and National Historic Landmark. It has been continuously inhabited by Tiwa-speaking Native Americans for over a thousand years making it one of the oldest communities in the United States. However, it's worth noting that there are other Native American pueblos in the Southwest such as Acoma Pueblo in New Mexico and Hopi villages in Arizona which are considered even older.

Taos also offers an array of cultural experiences. Visitors can explore Spanish colonial history at the San Francisco de Asis Mission Church which was built in the early 1800s making it around 150-175 years old rather than 200 years old as previously mentioned. Additionally, local cultures can be explored at museums like the Millicent Rogers Museum or Harwood Museum of Art.
For those seeking relaxation with a touch of luxury, Taos offers world-class spas and wellness retreats as well as fine dining establishments serving Southwestern cuisine with farm-to-table ingredients.
