Itinerary
San Miguel Chapel is the oldest church in the United States, dating back to the early 1600s. This historic adobe structure reflects Santa Fe’s rich cultural and architectural heritage.
The Loretto Chapel is renowned for its iconic "Miraculous Staircase," a spiral staircase constructed without nails or visible support. Built in the late 1800s, the Gothic Revival-style chapel is a marvel of craftsmanship and design.
This stunning French Romanesque cathedral, built in the late 19th century, stands as a spiritual and architectural centerpiece of Santa Fe. Its elegant arches, rose window, and serene interior create an atmosphere of awe and reverence.
The Cross of the Martyrs offers stunning panoramic views of Santa Fe and the surrounding mountains. This hilltop memorial commemorates the Spanish friars who lost their lives during the Pueblo Revolt of 1680.
Santa Fe Plaza is the vibrant heart of the city, brimming with history, culture, and local charm. Surrounded by historic buildings, including the Palace of the Governors, the plaza hosts art markets, cultural festivals, and community events.

About Santa Fe
Santa Fe, capital of New Mexico, is a high-desert city of adobe buildings, art galleries and Native American and Spanish traditions below the mountains.
Santa Fe lies at about 2,200 metres at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, and it is the highest state capital in the United States. Spanish colonists founded it around 1610, and the Palace of the Governors, an adobe building on the central plaza, dates from those early years. Portals along the plaza are where Native American artists sell jewellery and pottery. The spiral staircase of the Loretto Chapel and the Cathedral Basilica of St Francis, in Romanesque style, stand within a few streets.
