Sightseeing Overview

Although Santa Fe isn't particularly large, the city has more than 200 restaurants, 250-plus art galleries, 60 or so Native American jewellery shops, and more than a dozen museums, along with a world-class opera programme and a good schedule of festivals.

Planning ahead will help you figure out which museums to see in the morning, which areas to choose for lunch, places to roam on foot through the afternoon, and galleries to pop into before having tea or a margarita in the late afternoon.

To orient yourself at the outset, explore the Plaza, Palace of the Governors and St Francis Cathedral first. Save the museums for another day (the Museum Hill bus is helpful) and a day of wandering along Canyon Road for still another experience - or you'll risk overload.
