Overview
Nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains at 7,000 feet, Santa Fe has been voted as one of the most popular travel destination in the US and in the top twenty most popular in the world. Mile after mile of scenic National Forest envelops the city. Often referred to as "City Different," the New Mexico capital is at once steeped in Spanish history and on the cutting edge of modern technology. A bustling plaza sits in the center of the city where visitors can enjoy a number of fine restaurants, trendy shops, and art galleries. Speaking of art, Santa Fe has been voted one of America's top three art cities, thanks to the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, Museum of New Mexico, and Museum of Fine Arts, among others. Nearby lies the Sangre de Cristo, a mountain region popular for skiing, hiking, and picnicking.
