8 of the Quirkiest Towns in New Mexico

When you step into New Mexico, you come face-to-face with its beautiful desert landscapes and rich multicultural traditions.

The narrative of New Mexico begins with its earliest inhabitants, primarily made up of Indigenous groups such as the Puebloan and Apache.

As the 16th century saw the arrival of Spanish forces, this territory went through transformations, shifting from Spanish to Mexican ownership and finally to American governance, sealing its status as the 47th state of the union in 1912.

This collection of people and histories has given rise to a personality and spirit not found elsewhere.

From the rising peaks of the Rockies to the brutal heat of the deserts, New Mexico is home to the quirkiest places you just cannot find anywhere else.
