Nestled in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Santa Fe is a city like no other—rich in history, culture, and creativity. As the nation’s oldest capital city, Santa Fe blends a deep multicultural heritage with a vibrant contemporary arts scene. Home to more than 250 galleries, world-renowned festivals like the Santa Fe Indian Market, the International Folk Art Market, and the prestigious Santa Fe Opera, the city has earned its distinction as a UNESCO Creative City. From adobe architecture to award-winning cuisine, every corner of Santa Fe reflects its diverse influences, spanning Indigenous, Spanish, and Anglo traditions.
Santa Fe is known as one of the most unique and captivating cities in the country, thanks to its commitment to preserving historic buildings and cultural traditions. A zoning code adopted in 1958, requires the distinctive Spanish-Pueblo architectural style, inspired by traditional adobe and wood construction. This approach helps protect Santa Fe’s unique charm, character, and rich cultural heritage–making it a truly special place to live, work, and visit.
Beyond the arts, Santa Fe offers an unparalleled quality of life for outdoor enthusiasts. At 7,...000 feet in elevation and with 320 days of sunshine a year, residents enjoy year-round recreation—from skiing at Ski Santa Fe to hiking, biking, and fly-fishing in the 1.6-million-acre Santa Fe National Forest. Whether you’re drawn to the city’s cultural vibrancy, breathtaking landscapes, or welcoming community, Santa Fe truly lives up to its name as The City Different.
