About Albuquerque

Albuquerque is New Mexico's largest city, a high-desert city on the Rio Grande with an adobe old town, the Sandia Mountains and a famous balloon festival.

Albuquerque lies at about 1,600 metres in the high desert, along the Rio Grande, with the Sandia Mountains rising on its eastern edge. Old Town, founded in 1706, is a plaza of adobe buildings around the church of San Felipe de Neri, now home to craft shops, galleries and courtyard restaurants. The Indian Pueblo Cultural Center presents the history and art of New Mexico's nineteen pueblos, and neon-lit motels along Central Avenue recall the days of Route 66.

Top-ranked sights in Albuquerque: Old Town Albuquerque, San Felipe de Neri Church, American International Rattlesnake Museum.
