On the Turquoise Trail to San Miguel Chapel in Santa Fe, New Mexico

San Miguel Mission in Santa Fe, New Mexico

Oldest church in the continental United States

     For tourists and history buffs alike, San Miguel Chapel should be on the "must-see" list while visiting New Mexico's capital city of Santa Fe. Lovingly referred to as "The City Different", Santa Fe is world renowned for its history, culture, food, native art scene and complete lack of urban planning when it comes to the roads. If you want to see the sights of Santa Fe, it's best to bring your walking shoes!

Land of the Dead Cemetery in Madrid, New Mexico.

Madrid is a must-see stop on New Mexico's Turquoise Trail

     For those travelers touring New Mexico's Turquoise Trail, Madrid will surely be high on the list of "must-see" locations. Even if art galleries and coffee shops aren't your thang, most people like food and the Mine Shaft Tavern has the best burgers around.   
​     Personally, I have no interest in being where the tourists are but there is another secret destination that makes Madrid worthwhile.

On The Turquoise Trail To La Capilla de San Ysidro Labrador

La Capilla de San Ysidro Labrodor in Santa Fe, New Mexico

A Secret Treasure In The City Different

     New Mexico's capital city, Santa Fe, is world famous for it's rich history, museum quality art, and signature "Santa Fe style". Visitors flock to the City Different to buy legit Native American jewelry, don their best "Southwest" outfit and pursue enlightenment while navigating impossibly narrow roads in the reluctant metropolis that relies on tourism but rejects the concept of city planning.
     Any visitor worth their salt will plan to see the Loretto Chapel, San Miguel Mission, The Palace Of The Governors, La Fonda Hotel, Georgia O'Keefe Museum, and all the art galleries on Canyon Road just to get warmed up.
     As for myself, I like to seek out the places where the tourists are not. Places that don't sell Kokopelli incense burners or Pendleton blankets and where nothing is adorned with a howling coyote.

On Turquoise Trail... A Return Trip To Cerrillos, New Mexico

A Return Trip To Cerrillos

     Back in April, my mom and I made a return trip to Cerrillos and I got some shots that I wasn't able to get the first time. For example, I really wanted to get some photos of the Antonio Simoni building (see above) but on my previous visit there were cars parked out front, ruining the old and haunted vibe that I wanted to show. But on this trip, no cars and a nice little breeze to blow that New Mexico state flag out at the exact perfect angle. Sometimes I get lucky!
     To see the photos from my first post about Cerrillos, including Mary's Bar and other iconic locations, click here.

Possibly the most iconic building in Cerrillos, Mary passed away in 2016 but her bar lives on.

Not Really Here Or There

     An easily overlooked stop on the Turquoise Trail road trip, Cerrillos is literally a living ghost town. At least six or seven people still live here and they even put up historical markers providing interesting information on the town's ancient buildings.
