Davis Catriona MacPhail D.V.M. Diplomate, American College of Veterinary Surgery Colorado State University Discover Santa Fe, a city where the sights, sounds and aromas of the Southwest join together to ignite the senses unlike any other place in the world. Nestled in the magic of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the city was founded in 1610 as a remote outpost of an expanding Spanish empire. Today, the streets are paved with the history of three distinct cultures including the indigenous Native American Pueblo tribes, the Hispanics and the Anglos. It is the blending of these unique histories and cultures that has given the city an allure all its own. Visitors can spend the day browsing through museums and galleries filled with handcrafted artifacts by Native American artisans, savoring the unique flavors of piquant New Mexican cuisine, or listening to live mariachi music in the Plaza. Theater, dance, and music all play a significant role in Santa Fe's past and present and the importance of art here has made the city one of the country's largest art markets.And, for the sight seer, the beauty of the surrounding area offers an amazing diversity of scenery and places to discover. Pueblo Indian tribes: Of the 19 Native American communities located in New Mexico, eight are near Santa Fe. All eight are Pueblo Indian tribes and their communities are referred to as Pueblos.Many of these Pueblos were established centuries ago such as the Taos Pueblo which is thought to have been continuously occupied for close to 1,000 years. Each Pueblo has its own tribal government, traditions, ceremonies and is a sovereign and separate entity. The Pueblos typically welcome visitors and much can be learned about Native American culture by visiting the Pueblos, especially during the specific dances and feast days open to the public. After the seminars:A town that is almost 400 years old, that sits at the base of the Rocky Mountains and is known as,"The City Different" is bound to have a little something for everyone. In town the city not only offers a historic past and rich culture to peruse but Santa Fe is known for its many shops and boutiques, art galleries, and wide range of entertainment from dance to theater to music which can keep visitors busy both day and night. Much of what Santa Fe has to offer is located within the historic downtown area, which has a definite European feel to it, and can easily be traversed on foot. For those with outdoor recreation in mind, Santa Fe is surrounded by more than 1.5 million acres of National Forest and public land which puts activities like fishing, camping and hunting within easy reach. Hiking, biking, kayaking, backpacking, mountain climbing, cross-country or downhill skiing at the Santa Fe Ski Basin , white water rafting and wind surfing are all available during the year. Golf, horse racing, tennis and even bird watching are other ways to enjoy the typically sunny temperate days here. Activities:
