First established as an artist colony, Taos is popular with many creatives thanks to its blend of cultures and stunning landscapes, offering numerous museums and galleries filled with local works. Coupling with the town’s stunning adobe architecture, Taos’ art scene, and multicultural influences give it that unique New Mexico flare. Visitors should be sure to visit the World Heritage Site, Taos Pueblo, to learn of the region’s ancient history and the culture of the Native Americans who have lived in the adobe complexes for thousands of years.
