Things To Do In Santa Fe
Santa Fe is unlike other cities in the United States. It has a long history, having been founded by Spanish settlers in 1610. This makes it the oldest state capital in the United States. The first thing many visitors notice is Santa Fe's Pueblo Revival and Territorial Revival architectures which is mandated by city ordinance. Aside from its unique architecture, Santa Fe has much to offer visitors. We recommend visiting the TOURISM Santa Fe website for more information, but this page lists some things visitors can do in and around Santa Fe.
