• New Mexico Capitol Art Collection - This tour kicks off outside the New Mexico Capitol Art Collection building located at 415 Don Gaspar Ave, Santa Fe.

Then proceed straight down Old Santa Fe Trail.

• San Miguel Chapel - Pause here and glance to the right. Notice the simple adobe chapel with a cross on top? That’s San Miguel Chapel. And guess what? You’re gazing at the oldest church in the United States!

• Loretto Chapel - Pause here and look to your right. Here stands Loretto Chapel, constructed in 1878. While it may not boast as much history as the San Miguel Chapel, it has its own claim to fame. That would be the renowned “miraculous stair.”

• The Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi - Pause here. To your right stands the impressive Cathedral Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi, built in 1869. It occupies the site of a much older church that missionaries constructed back in 1610. That one was destroyed in 1680, but it might have endured to this day if not for a pivotal decision in 1675.

• Santa Fe Trail End Marker - Santa Fe has long been a key destination along many trails through the American west. This includes the Old Spanish Trail, which links Santa Fe to the California coast, and El Camino Real, which stretches all the way up from Mexico City. And it’s these ancient trails

• Santa Fe Plaza - We’re standing in the heart of Santa Fe Plaza. This obelisk before us is the Soldiers’ Monument, erected in 1867 to honor the Union soldiers from New Mexico who fought in the Civil War. It has been a source of controversy for decades.

• Palace of the Governors - Pause here. That adobe building across from us is the Palace of the Governors, the administrative hub of Santa Fe since 1610. From here, the Spanish governed New Mexico for decades. And it’s here where Po’pay set his sights when he led his Puebloan forces into the city.

• Chocolate + Cashmere - Look ahead a little, on the left side of the street. Do you see the white sign that says “chocolate + cashmere”? That marks a chic little boutique selling exactly what it advertises… but the address itself holds a much more intriguing history.

• DeVargas Center - After Otermín’s unsuccessful attempt at reconquest, a decade passes in relative peace. That is, until Diego de Vargas enters the scene. In 1692, Vargas marches on Santa Fe with only a few hundred men and a handful of cannons. But he isn’t there to fight. He offers the Puebloans a deal: If they allow Spain to reclaim control of New Mexico, they will all be granted clemency and will not face punishment for their revolt. After much deliberation, the Puebloan leaders agree.

• Fort Marcy Dog Park - Continue walking along the path. Remember to pace yourself if needed. We’re currently more than 7,000 feet above sea level. That means the oxygen here is much thinner than you might be accustomed to! So if you start feeling out of breath, it’s perfectly fine to take a break!

• Cross of the Martyrs - Up ahead stands the Cross of the Martyrs, the most iconic feature of this park. This cross honors the 21 Franciscan missionaries and 380 settlers who were killed during the Pueblo Revolt of 1680.
