The walking paths are easy to follow, clearly marked, and offer beautiful views of the native flowers and plants that thrive in this environment. We took our time exploring all the different sections of the gardens, making the most of our visit. It truly was such a lovely, peaceful atmosphere for a quick get away from Albuquerque on the 4th of July.

I go to a lot of botanical gardens when I travel and this one was just ok. For the $16 admission…read moreprice, I'd say skip this one. It's small and you will be done in an hour at absolute most if you go really slow and take your time. The garden itself is beautiful, but for how large it is and the time you'll spend here it's not worth it. It is neat to see plants native to New Mexico here. Staff was friendly, and the gift shop had some cute things in it. Only porter potty bathrooms here. Located right by the other museums, so its a cool stop if you are in the area but honestly I'd say skip it and just walk around the museum plaza area instead.

Fantastic gem! We just wanted a late night light drink, a coffee or something. This place is so…read moreawesome: - DJ Spinning ethereal, non-lame music - Great coffee and tea drinks, tonics, mixes. They have non-alcoholic (NA) beers and elixirs too. - Genuinely some of the best onigiri I've ever had, period. These were vegan, it does not matter, anyone can enjoy since they were mushroom. - Games and nice seating and choose a record to request from their vast vinyl collection! Wonderful conversation spot, reasonably priced especially for what you get. Service is very attentive and gracious. Pictured here, Dark Side of the Moon and Eye of the Tiger

The rest of metro Santa Fe might be their version of suburbia, but the heart that anchors Santa Fe is right here. Yes, the shopping on the adjacent streets is a bit high end, but the classy charm of the plaza and the Tribal merchants across the street at the Inn of the Governors grounds the experience. Besides the interesting mix of people at the Plaza, I note 2 interesting experiences: 1. The Classic Car show on Friday night that circled the entire Plaza on the outside, accented by "Low Riders" occasionally circling. Our friend Laurie even found the model of car that her family drove around during her childhood. 2. The Santa Fe Plaza Obelisk, historically known as the Soldiers' Monument, was toppled by protestors in 2020 and its pieces are slated for a museum. What will become of the Monument proper is in community committee hands, which will probably go round and round without much meaningful progress short term.

I expected a little more action since the Weekend had either begun on Thursday night or should have been warming up for the evening ahead.
