New Mexico is an amalgamation of historic sites, beautiful scenery and cultural attractions. In New Mexico's mountains, the city of Taos offers a variety of winter and summer activities such as skiing, hiking, biking, and fishing, while East New Mexico has some of the most impressive scenery in the United States.

There is no other state in the US with so many national parks dedicated to Native Indian civilizations. From Bandelier in Los Alamos to the ancestral Pueblo Indian ruins in Aztec to the Chaco Culture in Nageezi, the whole state has places where you can learn about this important cultural heritage.

The capital of New Mexico, Santa Fe is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the US and offers some of the most extensive collections of Southwestern galleries and cultural exhibits.
