New Mexico
New Mexico is a southwestern U. S. state whose diverse terrain encompasses the Chihuahuan Desert and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Its capital, Santa Fe, founded in 1610, is known for upscale spas and Spanish colonial architecture. It's also home to a vibrant arts scene, as well as the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, featuring the artist's iconic New Mexican landscape paintings, and the open-air Santa Fe Opera.
