Under the canopy of the New Mexico History Museum you'll find the daily marketplace for Native American artists to share their work. This sacred spot is the best place to find authentic jewelry from the pueblo people. Ask them about their work and where they are from, the artists love to share stories about the origins and meanings of the symbols. 

Shiprock is truly one of the most beautiful stores we have had the pleasure of visiting. Filled with contemporary and historical Native American art such as jewelry, tapestry and furniture. Even if you are not looking to buy something, this is a must visit. 

About as central and New Mexican you can get, Rosewood Inn Of the Anasazi is truly a beautiful place to stay. This lovely hotel celebrates the spirit of its surroundings. Enjoy a drink in the bar by the fireplace or have a bite to eat on the patio. The 57 rooms and 1 suite, all complete with handcrafted textiles, beamed ceilings and gas-lit kiva fireplaces, provide a homey atmosphere.

The Shed is one of those places you come back to again and again. The food is truly that good. Expect local New Mexican cuisine, we recommend you order the enchiladas "Christmas style" for the perfect combination of green and red chile. This restaurant is extremely popular so make sure you line up to put your name down for dinner around 3:30 pm.
