New Mexico's must, see list is headlined by Santa Fe known for its art, rich history, and adobe architecture, White Sands National Park offering the one, of, a, kind experience with its dunes made of gypsum, Taos giving the combination of nature and culture, Carlsbad Caverns National Park showing off the vast underground cave, and Albuquerque presenting the old town, great food, and Balloon Fiesta.

From a landscape perspective, New Mexico is incredible. Carlsbad Caverns National Park, White Sands National Park, and Bisti/De-Na-Zin Wilderness offer radically different geology. Culturally, Taos Pueblo (UNESCO) and Chimayó are irreplaceable for Indigenous and Hispanic heritage. Combine those with Santa Fe’s museums, and you’ve got a trip with real depth.
