Vacation In New Mexico -Homewood Suites By Hilton Albuquerque
The state of New Mexico shouldn't be overlooked as a vacation destination; its open spaces and unique terrain promise extraordinary experiences. New Mexico draws some of its own character from each of the five states that surround it: Texas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Utah, and Arizona.
New Mexico is also a border state with the country of Mexico. Of course, American Indians were the first inhabitants of the state. The tribes represented in the state are primarily Navajo and Pueblo peoples. New Mexico offers the visitor many attractions that can't be found elsewhere. The Native American history of the area is alive with artifacts, dance, art, and music. Be sure not to miss Carlsbad Caverns (a National Park), which is less than 30 miles from the city of Carlsbad. You can take in guided tours of more than 100 caves and enjoy some great hiking. The landscape around Santa Fe, the capital city, is breathtaking. The sunsets are beautiful and the uncountable stars are crystal clear.
There's much to admire in this historic city, including centuries old adobe buildings, fine dining in restaurants featuring wonderful southwestern fare, and its well-known galleries and museums. Just about every type of accommodation is available in Santa Fe, from rustic lodges to luxury hotels and resorts. Hotels in Santa Fe reflect the charm and atmosphere of the city, and contribute to its reputation as a must-see destination. Conde Nast Traveler readers voted Santa Fe near the top the list. With more than a dozen state and private museums to choose from, there's something to fit anyone's interest. If you enjoy water sports a variety of river rafting trips are available, suitable for families and whitewater adventurers alike. Rentals can be arranged for half and full-day trips from a number of locations, including Taos, Albuquerque, and Santa Fe. New Mexico storms are amazing, and its wildlife diverse and excellent subjects for photography.
New Mexico also offers three national parks and over thirty state parks. The City of Rocks State Park was formed of volcanic ash more than thirty million years ago and were moved and sculpted by wind and water to form into monolithic blocks. New Mexico is unique in that it preserves both body fossils and trace fossils of Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous dinosaurs. The culture and architecture from eras long past in New Mexico will astound you. There are caves galore, volcanoes, and Native American ruins.
Their history and culture have been passed down from generation to generation, as have the stories of the early settlers making their way west and seeking new lives.
