Entrance to Canyon Road

This intersection is a popular entrance to Canyon Road. Already you can see the art work visible.

Just a short walk away are many galleries, jewelry shops, places to eat and more.

Palace of Governors

The Palace of Governors is across the street from the Santa Fe Plaza.

No music today, but lots of street vendors and artisans selling their wares.

Old Santa Fe Trail at Water Street

One block from the Plaza, where the Old Santa Fe Trail ends, it takes a few turns.

One of the many narrow streets that seem almost like back alleys, there are interesting things to explore in nearly every direction.

Old Santa Fe Trail at Alameda

The corner of Old Santa Fe Trail and Alameda Street. On the other side of the street is the Santa Fe River.

Keep on walking across the street and the next major intersection is with Paseo de Peralta; up there you'll find the Visitor's Center.

The view in this panorama are man-made. The parapets of the roof line create a distant, mountainous look. That feeling is increased via the sculpture of the deer jumping down.

Museum of Fine Arts

The Museum of Fine Arts is located at the corner of Palace Avenue and Lincoln Avenue, diagonally across the street from the Plaza.

Alameda at Don Gaspar

More galleries and restaurants within walking distance.

Glimpse up Gypsy Alley

We're past the half-way point as we go up Lower Canyon Road.

This angle gives you a nice glance up Gypsy Alley to places nestled back up in there.

You can even see a bench inspection taking place; Santa Fe cares about your safety.

Canyon Road at Camino Escondido

Send a post card to your friends and family letting them know what a great time you're having. Look around in the panorama and you'll see what I mean.

Looking up Canyon Road you can see one of the Sangre de Christo foothills.

Canyon Road at Garcia Street

Up Canyon Road a little farther from Paseo de Peralta you'll find Garcia Street. Again, you can see art work nearly every where you turn.

At the other end of Garcia you'll find a few small shop and outdoor seating.

Paseo de Peralta at East Alameda

If you are a visitor to Santa Fe, chances are you'll walk or drive through this intersection many times. Paseo de Peralta forms a small-time beltway around the inner-most part of the city. Alameda runs along the Santa Fe River.

Look left, down East Alameda to the east and the Santa Fe River is on your right. Along it is an informal trail, some picnic benches, and a park near a big curve at the end. Continuing to look left, on the opposite corner one can see the St. Francis Cathedral Elementary School.
