Taos, New Mexico - Informational Travel Guide
Taos lends itself to a unique lifestyle - an eclectic mix of the past and present, historic and contemporary, busy yet laid back. Life in Taos, and throughout northern New Mexico, has two unusual elements that make it like no other place - the way our history and art are infused in our daily lives.
Our history is alive here; the Taos area is a mix of Pueblo Indian, Spanish, and Anglo peoples. The Taos Pueblo people have been here for more than a thousand years; the Spanish people for more than 400 years; and, the Anglo people for a couple hundred years. All have traditions and festivals dating back these many years. You feel the rich texture of so many years of tradition interlaced with the present time - in all you do here. Art is an essential element of Taos. Art is found in everything we do. We are surrounded by towering mountains, vast plains, infinite blue skies. And the light -- the way the light shines during the day at this elevation and within these vast natural spaces creates a beautiful golden glow. Artists have been awe-struck by the 'quality of light' throughout the ages here in Taos. Art is a respected, important element of all our lives. Come join us and experience for yourself the beautiful sunsets, inspiring nature, exhilarating outdoor sports, regional cuisine, and the creative lifestyles that abound in Taos.

We love Taos. But we have also discovered Las Vegas, New Mexico. The food in New Mexico is in Las Vegas, a town that does not have national chains, and cherishes local ownership and traditional cooking. Take a look at the You Tube site benboothe to see a video of the Best Food of Northern New Mexico.
