Overview

  • Step beyond the turquoise jewelry and postcard-perfect adobe facades to uncover the raw, contested, and beautifully blended history of Old Town Albuquerque. This immersive walking tour peels back the layers of a tricultural epicenter where Spanish colonial ambition, Indigenous resilience, and Anglo-American enterprise collided. From the geometric precision of a 1706 plaza to a jarring American Foursquare mansion, and from a grand Catholic church to a hidden grassroots chapel, you will discover how three distinct worlds fought, adapted, and ultimately forged a unique high-desert identity.
